Located roughly 15 km south of Vienna, the town of Laxenburg is particularly famous for its 13th century Franzensburg castle which draws in numerous tourists from all around the world.

Numerous standardized and tailor-made trainings, academic degree programmes, opportunities for dialogue and networking, and anti-corruption think-tank and benchmarking activities organized by IACA were and continue to be hosted in the Palais Kaunitz-Wittgenstein.
