Admont

Admont is a market municipality in Liezen District that spreads across a large territory in the Alps along the Enns Valley. The settlement sits at 640 meters elevation and is surrounded by densely forested mountains that define the landscape.

Admont became a market municipality in 2015 through an administrative reorganization in the Styria region. This change was part of larger structural reforms that simplified local government across Austria.

Admont sits in the Enns Valley, an area with deep roots in mining and timber work that still shape the local crafts and economy today. People here maintain a strong connection to the surrounding mountains and nature, which guide their daily rhythms and traditions.

The municipality uses three different postal codes across its different areas: 8911, 8912, and 8913, which matters when addressing mail. The telephone area code here is 03613.

A large portion of Admont lies within Gesäuse National Park, a protected area featuring dramatic limestone formations in the northern Alps. The gorge carved by the Enns River here stands as one of Austria's most striking canyons.
