Oberpullendorf District

Oberpullendorf District is an administrative region in Austria's Burgenland province that encompasses 27 municipalities spread across its territory. The area includes both small villages and larger towns, organized around its main center from which it takes its name.

This region was established in 1921 following World War I, when territories previously under Hungarian control became part of the newly created Austrian province of Burgenland. This change followed the redrawing of borders across Central Europe after the war.

The area is home to Croatian-speaking communities who maintain their language and traditions as part of daily life. This cultural presence shapes local celebrations and the character of several towns.

The area is accessible by car and public transportation, allowing visitors to move between its various towns and villages relatively easily. Planning ahead for opening hours of local attractions and services helps make the most of a visit.

Raiding is home to the Franz Liszt Center, dedicated to the celebrated Hungarian composer who lived in this area. Music enthusiasts visit to learn about his life and work in his former residence.
