A warm welcome to the town of the Babenbergs on the Danube! 

Klosterneuburg is a town that boasts a high proportion of green spaces, even within its built-up residential areas. This makes Klosterneuburg a true ‘town in the countryside’ with great recreational value. This is because safeguarding the quality of housing and life, and preserving the green spaces of the Wienerwald landscape, are always at the forefront of urban development and, in particular, spatial planning policy. Klosterneuburg has also established itself as an attractive business location for retail, skilled trades, tourism and services, as well as for the self-employed. The Klosterneuburg business community, in collaboration with the municipality of Klosterneuburg, has repeatedly set new innovative trends to prevent the outflow of purchasing power and to position Klosterneuburg as an attractive shopping destination.

Through targeted business attraction initiatives and the creation of a new business park in Schüttau, the town has succeeded in attracting businesses of national and international significance to Klosterneuburg.
