Vienna (Vy-enna) a town in Kennebec County was settled in 1786 and incorporated on February 20, 1802 from portions of Goshen and Wyman's plantations. The community was named for what is now Vienna, Austria. (see History of Vienna).
Small, quiet and picturesque, Vienna is located on the northwesterly corner of Kennebec County, 22 miles northwest of Augusta the state capital and just 12 miles down Rt. 41 from Farmington the Franklin County seat.
Vienna lies within the foothills of the western Maine mountains. On a clear day McGaffey Mountain — the highest point in Kennebec County—which is located in Vienna, provides views of Mount Washington, Mount Blue, the Camden Hills and Mount Katahdin.

WHO’S MY MEMBER OF CONGRESS?
Want to contact your Member of the US House of Representatives on an issue, or to get their help dealing with Government bureaucracy? If you lived in Vienna or Mt. Vernon last September 27, 2011, you would rightly have gotten in touch with First District Representative Chellie Pingree. However, if you read the KJ or the Sentinel or listened to the radio or TV on September 29, you might have concluded that you ought to be contacting one of Second District Representative Mike Michaud’s offices. You would have had grounds for doing so.
On September 28, 2011, the Maine Legislature enacted, and the Governor signed into law L.D. 1590, which re-drew Congressional District lines, most notably in Kennebec County. Mt. Vernon, Vienna and 8 other towns moved from the First to the Second District at that point—at least so far as Augusta was concerned.*
