Mauthausen is a small town located in Upper Austria (Oberösterreich), situated along the Danube River approximately 20 kilometers east of Linz. The town has a long history dating back to medieval times, with historic architecture and a traditional Austrian market square.
However, Mauthausen is primarily known for its significant World War II history, specifically the Mauthausen-Gusen concentration camp complex that operated there from 1938 to 1945. Today, the former concentration camp site serves as a memorial and museum, dedicated to preserving the memory of the victims and educating visitors about this dark period in history. The memorial site plays an important role in contemporary historical education and remembrance culture.
The town itself, beyond its historical significance, is characterized by its scenic location in the Danube Valley, surrounded by traditional Austrian countryside and vineyards.
