history

The place was first mentioned in 777 as Todicha in the letter of the Bavarian Duke Tassilo III. for the foundation of the Kremsmünster Abbey . The word is composed of a Germanic personal name Todo and Old High German aha for river. This resulted in Twedick (1088), Dudich (1170) and finally today's Dietach.

Originally located in the eastern part of the Duchy of Bavaria , the place belonged to the Duchy of Austria since the 12th century . Since 1490 it has been part of the principality, then crown land Austria ob der Enns .

During the Napoleonic Wars , the place was occupied several times.

Since 1918 the place belongs to the federal state of Upper Austria. After the annexation of Austria to the German Reich on March 13, 1938, the place belonged to the Gau Oberdonau . After 1945 the restoration of Upper Austria took place.

Until the Nazi era, Dietach belonged to the Gleink community . In 1938 this had to cede its southern parts, including the main town, to the city of Steyr, so that it only comprised the three original tax communities of Unter-, Mitter-, and Oberdietach, and was subsequently incorporated into the community of Wolfern . On January 1, 1946, Dietach became a separate political municipality under this name.
