Episode 8 - Sights in Siegendorf

We've been going on walks around Siegendorf, a village of about 2,700 people. It has a nice mix of old and new. I'm very interested in two churches in town which I'll describe in future blogs. In this one I want to show the school, the main government building and some different kinds of houses.

This is the government building in town. Inside are things like the mayor's office and the post office (open 8 to 11 am and 2 to 5 pm).


This is the primary school which has the first four grades. After that children go to school in nearby Eisenstadt.






This is a typical street of row houses. You see these all over this part of Austria.



Here are three really older houses.






Here are three houses that are obviously newer and quite large.






Some things are the same everywhere - like birthday parties.
We could hear the children shouting.

  1. These colors are beautiful. Are all the buildings this stucco (do I have that correct?) - odd to see no brick.

    Amazing to see everything so clean without trash and billboards spoiling the view!
