Mauer, Vienna

Mauer (German for "wall"; Central Bavarian: Maua) is a former village of Lower Austria that has been part of Vienna since 1938.

After Nazi Germany annexed Austria, the City of Vienna was expanded greatly, which led to the incorporation of Mauer in 1938.

The region is known for producing outstanding white wines such as Sauvignon Blanc, Gelber Muskateller, Riesling, Chardonnay, Grüner Veltliner and especially Viennese Gemischter Satz.

Unlike many Heuriger in Grinzing and Neustift am Walde, Mauer is hardly frequented by tourists, preserving a true and original vibe.

Mauer's main access to public transportation is the 60 tram line, which runs from Westbahnhof terminal (intercity trains and metro station) via Hietzing to Rodaun.
