Lambach (German pronunciation: [ˈlambax]) is a market town in the Wels-Land district of the Austrian state of Upper Austria on the Ager and Traun Rivers. A major stop on the salt trade, it is the site of the Lambach Abbey, built around 1056. Notable alumnus from the local elementary school is Adolf Hitler, who attended the establishment in the 1890s.
