Fugging, (formerly and colloquially Fucking) pronounced roughly "fooking" (rhymes with "booking"), is a village in Austria. It was home to Austria's most stolen sign and was known for its name. This village of only around 100 inhabitants can be visited quite easily from Salzburg. The village was officially renamed on 1 January 2021.
