History & character
From Mesolithic Times to a Modern Community
Elsbethen, first documented in 930 as Campanuaua, has a long history that dates back to prehistoric times. Finds in the Zigeunerloch indicate settlement from the Mesolithic to the La Tène period. The municipality is located in the Flachgau region, adjacent to the capital Salzburg, and offers an attractive landscape with agricultural land and forested areas. The most prominent elevations include the Schwarzenberg, Gurlspitze, and Mühlstein. Today, Elsbethen is home to 5,417 residents who enjoy a quiet environment with good access to the city of Salzburg.

Where trees or woody vegetation grow, from satellite imagery (Copernicus, 5 m, 2021 data). There is no tree register like Salzburg’s here, the satellite view still shows the real green.
Light & shadow
Check the light anywhere. Type an address or click the map, pick a floor and drag through the day. The buildings cast their real shadows. Pan the map to explore.

Real building heights (OpenStreetMap footprints with heights from the BEV laser scan), sun hours and shadows from sun position and geometry. How much of it reaches you also depends on orientation and windows. Terrain is included, from the official elevation model out to 12 km: a mountain to the south takes the winter sun just as the house opposite does. Where the sun only grazes a ridge, the figure remains an approximation. At the foot of the Mönchsberg and Kapuzinerberg this weighs heavily: in winter both sit at 25 to 28 degrees, higher than the sun ever climbs there (just under 19).
