History & character
From Early Settlement to Town Municipality
Groß-Enzersdorf has a long history that dates back to the first settlement around 3000 years ago. The region was visited by Saxons under Charlemagne in 791 to defend against the Avars. The name of the place, originally Encines Dorf, originated around 870 on the Danube island of Sachsengang, where the present-day castle stands. Over the centuries, the town faced numerous challenges, including devastation by the Turks and looting during the Thirty Years' War. In 1803, Groß-Enzersdorf became part of the Habsburg monarchy and was granted town rights in 1396. Following the annexation of Austria to Nazi Germany in 1938, the municipality was temporarily incorporated into Vienna and became the namesake for a new Viennese district. In 1954, Groß-Enzersdorf regained its independence as a municipality.
Today, Groß-Enzersdorf is located in the Marchfeld, just 18 km east of Vienna. The town borders the protected Lobau area and offers an attractive residential location due to its proximity to the capital. The character of the town is shaped by a mix of historical elements and modern living options, making it an interesting place to live for many people.

Access · travel time
Where can you get from here, by which mode, to which destination? The map colours every location in the municipality by real travel time (dark = fast).
Real travel time per inhabited location (250 m grid, clipped to the real municipality boundary) to destinations in Vienna. Transit from the schedule router (Day = peak, Late = after 11pm), bike/walk/car over the street network (car computed without traffic, so rush hour takes correspondingly longer).

Climate & environment
Where trees or woody vegetation grow, from satellite imagery (Copernicus, 5 m, 2021 data). There is no tree register like Vienna’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 (official Vienna building model, computed from the BEV laser scan in the surroundings), 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. In Vienna the terrain rarely matters: ten minutes in the Innere Stadt, and just as little at the Döbling vineyards, where the slope lies to the north-west and never touches the southern sun. It only tells in the Wienerwald valleys, at Kalksburg a good two hours on 21 December.
