history
In ancient times, the area was part of the Noricum province .
The first mention of the name Stössing took place in 1204. In 1248 Stössing was named among the branch churches of the mother parish Böheimkirchen, together with Auserkasten , Kasten and Schildberg . In the 14th and 15th centuries, the parish church was expanded to its present form, during which time Stössing also had parish rights. The destruction and depopulation by the Turkish wars in 1529 and 1683 (Turkish chapel in Hochgschaid ) brought about a decline, so that the parish of Stössing had to be looked after by Kasten and Brand alternately . As part of the Josephine reforms, the Stössing parish was established in 1784.
Today's political community was founded around 1850. In 1895, today's Hochstrass Technical School for Ecological Agriculture and Housekeeping , at that time the Agricultural Housekeeping School of the Daughters of Divine Love , was founded as a private school and in 1917 was granted public rights. After the school was closed in 2009, the Hochstraß monastery , in which eight nuns lived at the end, also had to close in 2011.
In the course of the community reform in 1971, the communities of Stössing and Kasten near Böheimkirchen were merged. At the beginning of 1988, the two communities were divided again, although Stössing had to cede the Mayerhöfen cadastral community, which originally belonged to its municipality, to Michelbach.
