- Marchfeld Canal : The groundwater level in Marchfeld has been falling for decades. As early as the 19th century, considerations were being made as to how this problem could be countered. In 1986 the construction of a canal began to enrich the groundwater with Danube water . In 1995 the main channel between Langenzersdorf and Deutsch-Wagram was completed. Since then, the Marchfeld Canal system has included the Marchfeld Canal , the Rußbach, the Obersiebenbrunn Canal and the Stempfelbach . The Marchfeld Canal operating company is based in Deutsch-Wagram.

history
etymology
The name Wagram is derived from wac 'wave' and ram / rain 'limit' ("wave limit"). What is meant by this is probably the terrain that runs south along Parbasdorferstraße and formed the bank of a now gone arm of the Danube (similar to the ridge called Wagram near Krems, 50 kilometers away ). The first written mention of the name comes from the time of the Austrian interregnum under King Ottokar II and can be found in the Rationarium Austriacum created in 1258 , a tithe directory of the sovereign. The addition German was given to Wagram around 1560 to distinguish it from the nearby Croatian Wagram , a Croatian settlement that was created after the Turkish invasion of 1529 , which is now called Wagram on the Danube and was incorporated by Eckartsau in 1971 .
origin
The origins of Wagram probably go back to the time of colonization in the 11th and 12th centuries. The former colonist village had the typical shape of a rural village, which is still there today. The Anger is enclosed by today's Franz-Mair-Straße and Rohrergasse, but was partially built in in the 19th century. The size of the old town has hardly changed over the centuries (1258: 44 houses, 1452: 44 houses, 1590: 46 houses, 1595: 47 houses). Until 1787, some other professions such as butcher, shoemaker, baker, weaver and tailor joined the originally purely rural population and the number of houses rose slightly to 58.
The Russbach flowed through the village green , which was a very dangerous brook until it was finally regulated. The old Wagramer therefore made water boards that fit into the door frames of the houses and were reinforced with sandbags. Nevertheless, one often had to take refuge on the higher Haide. In 1772 the Russbach was diverted and has been flowing southwest of the village ever since. The threat to the place was only eliminated by the regulation in the years 1899–90 and 1908/09.
Rulership
Originally owned by the rulers , the village was owned by the Lords of Eckartsau in the 14th and 15th centuries , and by the Lords of Puchaim in the 15th and first half of the 16th centuries . Around 1560, Barbara von Puchaim brought Wagram into the marriage with Count Sigmund von Landau, who united it with the Süßenbrunn rulership . After the Counts of Landau professed Protestantism in 1580, a short Protestant period follows in Wagram. When Georg and Erasmus von Landau went so far as to refuse to pay homage to Emperor Ferdinand II , they were subsequently ostracized, their goods were confiscated and placed under the administration of the court chamber and they themselves were expelled from the country. From 1667 to 1802 the Counts Grundemann von Falkenberg exercised the manorial rule over Deutsch Wagram.
Coalition wars
The place gained historical importance in 1809 as the site of the Battle of Wagram . 180,000 soldiers fought here on the French side under Napoleon and 120,000 on the Austrian side under the Generalissimo Archduke Karl , who took his headquarters in today's Archduke Carl House.
railroad
In 1835 Wagram still consisted of 73 houses. This changed rapidly with the construction of the Kaiser Ferdinands-Nordbahn , the first steam-powered railway line in Austria. On the one hand 1,500 railway workers were housed in numerous barracks near Wagram, on the other hand the railway line opened up the village for the big city and Wagram became a popular excursion destination for the Viennese. Within a few months, 176,000 people drove on the new first section between Floridsdorf and Deutsch-Wagram, which opened on November 23, 1837 .
19th and 20th centuries
In 1929, Wagram was the largest town in the Marchfeld with 4000 inhabitants and was raised to the rank of a market town . In the same year a lido was opened, which however had to be closed again a few years later due to the lower groundwater level.
In May 1945, a large contingent of Soviet occupation troops was stationed in Deutsch-Wagram because of the nearby military airfield. The post-war period was determined by coexistence with the Russians.
The rest of the post-war period was characterized by strong population growth. In 1962, the express train was put into operation as a feeder line to Vienna. This made it even more attractive for commuters. With further population growth, Deutsch-Wagram was elevated to a city in 1984 .
Population development
The population development of Deutsch-Wagram is characterized by strong growth, which is due to a positive immigration balance. The birth balance was negative until 2005 and has been slightly positive since 2006 (0.1%). The move is due to the good transport connections to Vienna ( Speckgürtel ).
The population of Wagram is characterized by the influx of young families. Therefore, the proportion of over 60-year-olds at 18.8% is significantly lower than in Vienna. Accordingly, the proportion of under 15-year-olds is higher at 18.6% (cf. Vienna 14.7%). The university graduates is 5.6%, well below that of Vienna (10.4%).
Origin and language
92.9% of Austrians live in Deutsch-Wagram. The largest group of foreigners are citizens of Serbia and Montenegro with 2.5%, followed by Turks (0.9%) and Germans (0.7%). Colloquial language is 89.2% German, followed by Serbian (2.7%) and Turkish (1.3%).
Religions
The largest religious community is the Roman Catholic Church , to which 66.1% of the population belong. 3.0% are Protestant, 2.8% each profess to the Orthodox Church and Islam. 21.8% of the population are without religious beliefs.
Deutsch-Wagram is the seat of the Roman Catholic parish Deutsch-Wagram, which also includes the neighboring villages of Parbasdorf and Aderklaa and is assigned to the Deanery Gänserndorf. Deutsch-Wagram was a parish even before the 16th century, initially as a branch of Kagran. Because of the great distance she came to the parish of Gerasdorf in 1640. On March 22, 1784 Deutsch-Wagram was raised to an independent parish. With the elevation of Deutsch-Wagram to the city in 1984, the church was elevated to the city parish church. The patron saint is John the Baptist .
coat of arms
The official description is:
- A shield divided from yellow to blue on the left , covered with a green ear of wheat growing up out of a lawn , accompanied on the right by a silver plow knife and on the left by a silver ploughshare .
The Wagramer coat of arms was first used in 1810 to affirm a tenth lease agreement with the Süßenbrunn rulership.
