Korneuburg Schiffswerft

The Korneuburg Schiffswerft spans across 197,000 square meters along the Danube River, featuring four protected monumental halls and an extensive slipway system.

Established in 1852 by the Danube Steamship Company, the shipyard started with 60 employees and expanded to become Austria's primary facility for vessel construction.

The shipyard maintains a memorial to resistance workers who opposed the Nazi regime, preserving the memory of those executed during World War II.

The former industrial complex now houses multiple facilities, including an outdoor swimming pool, event spaces, and dining establishments for public use.

The training vessel Bertha von Suttner, constructed at this location, stands as the final ship produced before the facility's closure in 1993.
