geography

The Hagenberg is located in the northern part of the Hietzing district near the two old town centers of Ober Sankt Veit and Hacking . The mountain belongs to the Lainzer Tiergarten . In the immediate vicinity of the mountain lie the Nikolaiberg in the north and the Johannser Kogel in the west . In the west and south, the Hagenberg is bounded by the Schallautzergraben , which flows into the Grünauer Bach . The mountain is part of the Vienna Woods Mountains , the northeasternmost foothills of the Eastern Alps .

Origin of name

The Hagenberg is documented for the first time in 1377 as Hekenperg . Sometimes the reed name was also called Vorderer or Hinterer Hagenberg. Probably the name does not come from the word Hag , but has its roots in the nearby village of Hacking . Vineyards were also mentioned several times on the Hagenberg, but today there are no more vines here .
