History & character
From Frankish Bishop to Modern Village
Henndorf am Wallersee, a municipality in the Salzburg region, has a deep-rooted history that dates back to the Middle Ages. During this time, the Frankish Bishop Rupert of Salzburg worked nearby and influenced the region. Later, the village was under the rule of the Lords of Tann, who held sway until the 14th century. The population grew over the centuries, while living conditions were often complicated by superstition and social tensions. The Coalition Wars in the early 19th century also left their mark, as French troops marched through Henndorf, confronting the village with soldiers and prisoners of war.
Today, Henndorf am Wallersee is a vibrant community with around 5182 residents, located near the state capital of Salzburg. Agriculture still forms the foundation of the local economy, while the village gradually adapts to modern living conditions. Despite the challenges of the past, Henndorf has developed into a quiet residential area that combines tradition and progress.

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).
