Bürmoos
Bürmoos is a municipality in the district of Salzburg-Umgebung in the state of Salzburg in Austria. History Bürmoos was founded in 1967, making it the most recently created municipality in the state, by combining the outskirts of the neighbouring villages Sankt Georgen bei Salzburg and Lamprechtshausen. At that time, the place had been inhabited for only one hundred years. Until the early 19th century the area had been a bog without any settlements.
