Why visit

Rohrau takes its name from the reeds and the riparian forest around it, and it grew on the old road that ran from the Roman camp at Carnuntum to the crossing at Bruck an der Leitha.

Origins and history

The area belonged in pre-Roman times to the Celtic kingdom of Noricum and in Roman times to the province of Pannonia Superior; Rohrau is near Carnuntum, the former Roman army camp. The village grew along an old road beside the river Leitha that connected Carnuntum with the bridge crossing at Bruck an der Leitha.
