Vöcklabruck, Administrative center in Vöcklabruck District, Austria

The town stretches along the Vöckla River at 433 meters elevation, featuring two historic gate towers and multiple industrial facilities.

The name of the settlement comes from the combination of Vechela, a personal name, and Ache, meaning river in medieval times.

Museum Heimathaus exhibits regional artifacts and displays information about the Wolfsegg Iron, representing the industrial heritage of Upper Austria.

Located near the A1 Autobahn and B1 highway, Vöcklabruck provides access to three major lakes: Attersee, Traunsee, and Wolfgangsee.

The town square tower contains frescoes from 1502 created by Tyrolean artist Jörg Kölderer, depicting historical scenes of the region.
