The federal highway 17 between Neunkirchen and Wiener Neustadt ("Neunkirchner Allee") is completely straight and flat. This approximately 11 km long route was used in 1762 as the basis for the first precise survey of Austria (by P.J. Liesganig). At both ends of the long straight you can still see the two magnificent obelisks, reference points for this national survey.
