The border between Austria and Slovakia is 106.7 kilometers long.

course

The border begins in the north at the confluence of the Thaya and the March (Slovak Morava ) at the border triangle Austria-Slovakia-Czech Republic and then follows the lower reaches of the March to its confluence with the Danube at Engelhartstetten / Devín . The border then runs along the river before it turns south in the area between Wolfsthal , Karlova Ves and Petržalka and reaches the border triangle Austria-Slovakia-Hungary near Deutsch Jahrndorf / Čunovo .

history

Today's border was created on the basis of the Treaty of Saint-Germain in 1919 between Austria and Czechoslovakia, although large parts of the border between the two halves of Austria-Hungary formed part of the border and the March section formed the Kingdom of Hungary since the 11th century separated from Austria.

During the Cold War , the Iron Curtain ran along the border and was accordingly closely guarded.

The current border course is regulated according to a border treaty between Austria and Czechoslovakia of December 21, 1973 with later changes.
