The Föhrenwald powder factory is located in the extensive pine forest between Wiener Neustadt and Neunkirchen in the municipality of St. Egyden am Steinfeld. It was a grenade and ammunition factory and is no longer in operation today. At the beginning of the First World War, in 1914, between 80 and 100 workers were employed here. Shells were made in shifts around the clock. After the end of the First World War, operations had to be discontinued.

If you follow the railway from St. Egyden station in the direction of Wiener Neustadt and turn left after some time, you will reach the ruins of a once stately house in the middle of the Föhrenwald. This "manor house", located in the municipality of St. Egyden, is the last remnant of the powder factory of the company Dynamit Nobel.
