Archaeological finds are a prove to the fact that the community area has already been a place of settlement in the Bronze Age.
Absdorf owes its publicity to the Austrian National Railways. In 1870, the Emperor-Franz-Josef-track from Vienna Franz Josef station to Eggenburg had been opened up. In 1872, a further railway track to Krems and into the Wachau valley had been established, starting in Absdorf. In addition, the north-west track Stockerau - Vienna Floridsdorf had been built, leading to the intersection station Absdorf-Hippersdorf.
Worth seeing are the parish church St. Mauritius, the pest column and the museum of local history, which accommodates a collection of about 2000 exhibits.
Wine lovers will be pleased to find a romantic cellar lane, many Heurigen cellars and wine taverns. Highlight is the cellar lane party taking place in the middle of August.
