Neustadt

Neustadt, an Austrian town some 30 miles south of Vienna, was founded in 1192. Less than three centuries later was built a large castle (now used as a military school), in the chapel of which Maximilian I. was buried. There is also a 13thcentury church and a Cistercian abbey founded in 144-1. There was a great fire in 1834, after which the town was rebuilt. The Austrian town is known as Wiener-Nenstadt to distinguish it from Neustadt in Silesia and Neustadt-an-der-Hardt in Bavaria.
