background
Historically, the crown land was divided into four quarters, which, however, no longer have any administrative significance today. The industrial district is so named because it comprised the city of Vienna and the surrounding communities, which were already heavily industrialized in the 19th century. It has also historically been called District under the Vienna Woods designated. In the east and south it is delimited by the state borders with Burgenland and Styria, and in the north with the Danube. In the west, the district delimitation is not strictly applied, but in general the Vienna Woods and the mountain regions up to the watershed to the river Traisen are still included. Vienna has been a separate federal state since 1921 and is therefore no longer part of the industrial district, the center of which it was until then.
Due to its proximity to Vienna and the good transport links (motorways and railways), most of the industrial district is now a suburban area of Vienna and can for the most part be counted as part of the Vienna agglomeration area. The more mountainous parts are an important local recreation area of the agglomeration and offer numerous sights for day trips from the federal capital.
