Mödling is the capital of the Austrian district of the same name located approximately 14 km south of Vienna. Mödling lies in Niederösterreich's industrial zone. The Mödlingbach, a brook which rises in the Wienerwald, flows through the town. Near Achau it joins with the Schwechat. Woodland occupies a large part of the municipality, part of the Föhrenberge ('Pine Mountains'). Located immediately south of Vienna, and within the boundaries of the district of Mödling, is one of the largest shopping centres in Europe: Shopping City Süd (SCS). ==Geography== Grapes are grown on the slopes of the Wienerwald; the area is called ''Thermenregion'', where one can find much ''Heurigen'' (the most recent year's wine). Wiener Neudorf to the east, and Maria Enzersdorf to the north, merge directly into Mödling. South of Mödling is Gumpoldskirchen, separated by the Eichkogel with its very special flora. In the west a narrow street runs through Vorderbrühl, formally a village in its own rights, and leads to Hinterbrühl. This narrow valley is called Klausen, above it the remains of the Mödling castle, once belonging to the Babenberger, the then ruling family. On the other side of the Klausen is the Kalenderberg, with the castle of Liechtenstein on its far side. The beginning of the Klausen is marked by the large red-brick aqueduct of the ''Erste Wiener Hochquellenwasserleitung''. The steep, rocky valley sides of the ''Naturpark Föhrenberge'' grow the typical ''Wienerwald-Schwarzföhren'' (the ''austriaca'' form of the European Black Pine, ''Pinus sylvestris''). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mödling」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
