Langenlois is situated at an elevation of 219 m in the lower Kamp valley. It is one of Austria's best-known wine-growing communities. It was first mentioned in 1082 (as Liubisa) and 1141 (as Liubes). Langenlois obtained the status of a market town in 1310. Further privileges were granted in 1346, 1411 and 1518. Since 1925 Langenlois has the status of a town.

The parish church Sankt Laurentius [centre] goes back to a church of the Romanesque period; however, most parts of the present church date from the Gothic period. The tower of the church was heightened and remodeled in Baroque style in 1754–1756. A renovation in 1959/1960 aimed at restoring the Gothic appearance of the church.

While glass no. 671 [left] is labeled Sommerfrische Langenlois N.Oe. ('summer resort Langenlois Niederösterreich'), glass no. 3022 [right] is labeled Langenlois N.D. ('Langenlois Niederdonau'), dating the latter to between 1939 and 1945, when the Austrian provinces of Niederösterreich (Lower Austria) and Oberösterreich (Upper Austria) had been renamed by the Nazis to Niederdonau and Oberdonau, respectively.
