Wiener Neustadt Canal, Historic canal in Lower Austria, Austria.

The Wiener Neustädter Kanal extends over 63 kilometers through Lower Austria, connecting Vienna with the Wiener Neustadt region through a water transportation system.

The canal, constructed from 1797 to 1803, served as a vital transportation route for coal, wood, and bricks between Vienna and central Hungary during the industrial period.

The canal banks host traditional events throughout the year, including fish grilling festivals at the boathouse where locals gather to share regional specialties.

Visitors can explore the canal via dedicated cycling paths and walking trails that run parallel to the waterway, with multiple access points and rest areas.

The canal features several preserved locks and industrial structures from the 18th century, now functioning as a working channel for 36 kilometers between Wiener Neustadt and Mödlingbach.
