🇦🇹 Printable Map of Austria with States

The printable map of Austria is a labeled political map that names all nine federal states, marks Vienna and the eight other state capitals, and names the neighbouring countries around the border, sized for A4 and printing on US Letter. Download it free as a PDF or a JPEG, or take the political map of Austria in high resolution when you need it large.

Because everything on it is named, it works as a reference rather than an exercise: a wall chart for the classroom, a base for trip planning, or the answer key alongside a quiz. If you want the version students fill in themselves, use the blank map of Austria, and the Austria map worksheets pair the two.

For a neighbour in the same detail, use the printable labeled map of Switzerland. For the wider region, use the labeled political map of Europe, which shows where Austria sits among the eight countries it borders.

The image below shows the printable map of Austria with the nine federal states named and colour-coded, and the neighbouring countries named around the border.

Austria Labeled Maps Bundle and More

The labeled map is free. The high-resolution version and the bundle add more:

• Printable map of Austria with states and capitals
• Political Austria map with neighboring countries
• Labeled Austria map with Bundesländern

The bundle includes PDF and JPEG versions of all maps.

Between them the labeled maps name the nine states, mark Vienna as the national capital and the eight state capitals with their own symbol, and name the cities and towns listed further down. Every version keeps the neighbouring countries named around the border, a north arrow and a scale bar in both miles and kilometres, so the map still reads correctly when it is printed large.

The 9 Federal States of Austria, Their Capitals and Sizes

Austria is divided into nine federal states, called Bundesländer in German, and each one has its own capital. Vienna is unusual: it is both the national capital and a state in its own right, which is why it appears twice on the map and why it is by far the smallest state by area and the largest by population.

The areas are fixed; the population figures are rounded and move slowly. Two of the nine are easy to misread even on a labeled map. Vienna sits inside Lower Austria as a small enclosed shape, because the city is its own state, so Lower Austria has a hole in it and its capital, Sankt Poelten, is a different city entirely. And Tyrol comes in two pieces: East Tyrol, with Lienz, is cut off from the rest by a strip of Salzburg and Carinthia, so a correct map of Austria shows it as a detached area rather than one continuous state.

About Austria's States and Geography

Austria covers about 83,900 square kilometres and holds roughly 9.1 million people, which makes it one of the smaller countries in central Europe but one of the most mountainous: the Alps take up around three quarters of the land, and the Grossglockner reaches 3,798 metres in the range that separates Tyrol from Carinthia. The Danube crosses the north of the country for some 350 kilometres, passing Linz and Vienna on its way east, and the Wachau valley along it is the stretch most often marked in geography lessons. Austria is landlocked and shares borders with eight countries, more than almost any other state in Europe: Germany, Czechia, Slovakia, Hungary, Slovenia, Italy, Switzerland and Liechtenstein, and all eight are named on this map. Lake Constance in the far west and Lake Neusiedl in the far east sit at opposite corners and at opposite extremes, one alpine and deep, the other shallow and steppe-like. Population is concentrated in the east and along the Danube corridor rather than in the Alpine states, which is why Vienna, Lower Austria and Upper Austria together hold more than half the country on a fraction of its area.
