Burgenland
County
On 1 July 1994, Burgenland County was created in the course
of the local boundary reform. Around 137,581 people live in an area
of 1,041 square kilometres.
Since the middle of the 19th century, the economic development of
Burgenland County as it is today has been very closely linked to
the emergence of the industrial area in central Germany, and a wide
variety of branches is to be found there. After Reunification, the
food processing industry adapted particularly rapidly to the new
conditions. The logistics branch, the establishment of which has
depended decisively on the provision of trading areas by the A9
motorway, is a field which is flourishing. A lot of firms manufacturing
and trading building materials have also established themselves
in our region in recent years.
