Strasshof an der Nordbahn, Municipality in Lower Austria, Austria.

Strasshof an der Nordbahn extends across 11.64 square kilometers at an elevation of 165 meters, with forests covering 21 percent of its territory.

The town originated as a railroad yard in 1908 and operated until 1959, marking a significant period in Austrian transportation development.

During World War II, 75 percent of 21,000 Hungarian Jews survived at Strasshof due to agreements between humanitarian organizations.

The municipality connects to multiple hiking trails, including the 27-kilometer Natura Trail that presents local dry grasslands and sand dunes.

The town gained international attention in 2006 when Natascha Kampusch escaped from captivity after being held for 8.5 years in a local house.
