Oberndorf bei Salzburg, Municipality in Salzburg-Umgebung District, Austria
Located 17 kilometers north of Salzburg, Oberndorf bei Salzburg extends along the Salzach River at an elevation of 401 meters above sea level.
The St. Nicholas Church in Oberndorf became the birthplace of Silent Night when Franz Gruber and Joseph Mohr first performed it on Christmas Eve 1818.
The Silent Night Chapel, constructed in 1937, stands on the original site of St. Nicholas Church and features architecture reminiscent of the nineteenth century.
The municipality connects to Salzburg through the S-Bahn rapid transit system and links to the B 156 Lamprechtshausener Straße federal highway toward Braunau am Inn.
The town received its official rights and privileges in 2001, making it one of the most recent municipalities in Austria to achieve this status.
