The Aspern Memorial Forest is an important memorial site in Austria that commemorates the victims of National Socialism. This site is part of the national commemoration and culture of remembrance, which aims to ensure that the atrocities of the Nazi era are not forgotten and that the memory of the victims is kept alive.

The "Weikendorfer Remise" is the oldest nature reserve in Austria and was founded in 1927. The so-called inland dunes are unique to this area in the Marchfeld. Until the first half of the 18th century, the Marchfeld was a barren landscape dominated by steppe-like pastures and sandy hills. It was not until Maria Theresa that wind protection belts were created, which made the area arable. The "Weikendorfer Remise" is a last remnant of these unique sand dunes.
