Dorfschwalben aus Österreich (Village Swallows from Austria), Op. 164, is a Viennese waltz composed by Josef Strauss in 1864 or 1865.^[1]

It was inspired by August Silberstein's novel Dorfschwalben aus Österreich. It was premiered at the Volksgarten, Vienna, on September 6, 1864 (1865?). The polka-mazurka "Frauenherz" was premiered at the same time. Both compositions were played during Josef Strauss's memorial ceremony under the direction of his brother, Johann Strauss II.
