Fucking's most famous feature is a signboard with its name on it, which tourists often stop to have their photograph taken. It is a commonly stolen street sign. No surprise there.
This village is located 33 kilometres north of Salzburg, 4 kilometres away from the German border.
The "Fucking" settlement has existed since 1070 and is named after a man from the 6th century called "Focko"/"Fucker". Oooo.
"-ing" is an old Germanic suffix indicating the people of the root word to which it is attached; thus Fucking means "(place of) Focko’s people. The village has a population of 104. Wow! This "Fucking" people at this "Fucking" village don't really like "Fucking" do they? After all, Fucking has existed for over 800 years.
What if I'm a local and when people ask me this, "Hey, where do you live?"
Me: Oh. I live in the Fucking village in Austria.
"Man, do you really hate your village that much?"
Me: Eh, no no.. I'm a Fucker, you know the Fucking people in Austria? I go to the Fucking school, the Fucking church, we're all Fuckers.
"Son, you gotta watch your language."
