thank you ForestDragon, you nailed it! wiki says it is common in europe to asia
This looks like a Large Yellow Underwing (we have them here in the USA) but I am unsure if they occur in Austria. It is definitely related.
Here is the page for the North American species. Hopefully you can find its European counterpart!
