Perchtoldsdorf train station

The unmanned Perchtoldsdorf station offers covered seating, ticket machines and a Park & Ride facility for over 60 cars and more than 50 bicycles, making it an attractive connection point to the S2, S3 and S4 rapid transit lines. Not far from the station, which is located along the Südbahn line from Vienna to Wiener Neustadt, there is also a bus stop that serves several bus lines.

Perchtoldsdorf Castle

Less than half an hour's walk away is one of the most popular event locations just outside Vienna: Perchtoldsdorf Castle. From garden exhibitions to concerts and wedding fairs - whatever the theme, the castle's magnificent ambience and atmospheric backdrop guarantee an inviting setting for any event. The surrounding wine taverns serve regional wines and seasonal delicacies.

Viticulture

Traditional viticulture, which is carried out by small and medium-sized winegrowing businesses in Perchtoldsdorf, is still practiced today using traditional methods. A special role is attributed to the oak wine barrels used for ageing, which have been used since 1990. Due to the loess present in the Perchtoldsdorf soil, the region's wines develop particularly well and characterize the numerous wine taverns in the area.

The history

Originally, the stop on the southern railway line in Perchtoldsdorf was opened in 1841 at a different location, far outside the town center. However, it was closed again after the construction of the Kaltenleutgebener Bahn in 1883. The current station was not built until after the Second World War.
