history

A main road from the Murtal into the Drautal near Marburg, the Roman road Poetovio - Poedicum ( Ptuj - Bruck an der Mur ), ran through the area as early as Roman times ; today's crossing via Šentilj - Spielfeld may have been impassable because of the extensive floodplains in the Mur plain the road from Ad Vicesimum (Radkersburg) remained on the right bank of the Mur . The route presumably ran from the Platsch Pass northward over the Graßnitzberg , north-west to the Platscherhof, north again via Ewitsch, and then north-west down to Ehrenhausen - the straight route typical of Roman roads with sharp corners at intervals of a Roman mile (about 1.4 km) Presumably still recognizable in today's streets: The course of the Römerstraße was followed by the Alte Poststraße Vienna – Trieste until modern times , and in 1822 the pass is mentioned as “a mountain that makes commerce very difficult”.

The Admont Abbey was the owner of the Wielitsch Office , to which the room belonged.

Former parish

The abolition of the manorial lords and the creation of local parishes took place from 1848 . The municipality of Zieregg ( Slovenian Cirnik ) was founded in 1850, but after the breakup of Austria-Hungary in 1919 it was divided into the small Austrian village and the larger Slovenian Ciringa . Ewitsch (Ebič) and Wielitsch (Belič) were separated from the Ehrenhausen community in 1931 and merged with Zieregg on January 1, 1932 to form a new community that took the name Berghausen. The community capital was Wielitsch.

Berghausen always belonged to the judicial district or district of Leibnitz . After the annexation of Austria in 1938, the community became part of the Reichsgau Steiermark , from 1945 to 1955 it was part of the British zone of occupation in Austria .

Since 2015, Berghausen has merged with the municipalities of Ehrenhausen , Ratsch an der Weinstrasse and Retznei as part of the Styrian municipal structural reform , the new municipality bears the name Ehrenhausen an der Weinstrasse . The former municipality will continue to be part of the new municipality.

The last mayor was Gerhard Preglau ( ÖVP ). After the 2010 elections, the municipal council was composed as follows:

Economy, infrastructure and culture

Berghausen is a small wine-growing region . The Grenzland-Weinstrasse L 613 Ehrenhausen - Leutschach , which is part of the tourist route of the South Styrian Wine Route , runs through the area. Before Zieregg it turns west in the direction of Ratsch. Graßnitzbergstrasse L 671 comes up from Spielfeld . The Platscher Straße L 660 leads to the border crossing Platsch / Zieregg , which runs as the Slovenian R708 down to Podigrac , Plač and Kungota and connects to Maribor (Marburg). The border crossing has been freely passable again since Slovenia joined the EU in 2004.

At the summit of the Platsch, already in Slovenia, there is a lookout tower with a view of southern Styria and northern Slovenia.
