Apparently the center of Lower Austria is located here, and there is a hut next to it that is open here and there. A little further up (towards the forest) there is a nice viewing point.

The Max-Schubert-Warte is located at the geographical center of Lower Austria at an altitude of 227 m above sea level. A. It was built in 1993 and named after the geometer Maximilian Schubert (1896–1966).

This observation tower at 276 m above sea level is located on an unforested hill above the Perschlingtal, southeast of the town of Rassing. From here you have a beautiful view towards the south into the foothills of the Alps, towards the west towards the state capital and towards the north into the Traisental.

Nice, shady rest area at the White Cross. Further down, the Perschling flows past. The Perschlingtal Cycle Path and, more recently, the Center Cycle Route pass here. Especially on hot days you can recharge your batteries here under the trees, so that you can continue your cycle tours vigorously. The place is a bit hidden behind the trees. You have to be careful not to run past it.
