Wilhelmsburg, Administrative division in Lower Austria, Austria.

The municipality of Wilhelmsburg extends over 45.96 square kilometers, bordered by the Traisen river and positioned between the Vienna Woods and Türnitzer Alps.

First documented in 1083 as Willehalmspurch, Wilhelmsburg obtained market rights in 1279, marking its early development as a commercial center in Lower Austria.

The Catholic parish church of Saint Stephen stands as a principal religious structure in the Traisen valley, featuring Romanesque architecture from the 14th century.

Located 58 kilometers from Vienna and 11 kilometers from Sankt Pölten, Wilhelmsburg provides administrative services including birth certificates and marriage licenses.

The establishment of a cotton spinning mill in 1830 initiated the industrial transformation of Wilhelmsburg, shaping its development into a modern municipality.
