history

Enghagen was an important port on the Danube. The Roman Danube flotilla ( classis Pannonica ) from Lauricum is said to have been located here. In 1340 Duke Albrecht moved the land of the salt ships from Reintal (on the Enns) here: This affected both the traders coming from Passau with the Salzburg salt, as well as those from the Salzkammergut. The rafts from the Ischl area came down the Traun from Gmunden , and the salt was transferred to the Danube Zillen in Zizlau near Linz . Most of the trade to Bohemia was served here, especially on the Danube bridge Mauthausen – Enghagen , which was completed in 1505 , and when Bohemia became part of the Habsburgs in 1526 and Emperor Maximilian I wanted to promote the sale of his own salt. Emperor Ferdinand III. settled here in the middle of the 17th century its own salt transport office , which existed until 1826. This house was listed until 2016 .

The now dilapidated Spielberg Castle in Schlossau, documented in 1148, originally belonged to Enghagen, since 1997 it has belonged to Langenstein, the border of the Mühlviertel is now again on the north bank of the Danube.

In the early 19th century, Enghagen was right on the banks of the main course of the Danube, or on the Enghager Wasser , a tributary, when the Danube was still in a large meander from the - now distant - Astener town Fisching and Kronau past Schloss Spielberg (this one on the right bank) changed over to Langenstein and Mauthausen . The Kristeinbach, at the time still called Kühwampe , originally flowed directly into the village. Enghagen had a larger land on Enghager water. The area has silted up due to the Danube regulation . This Kühwampe (today's Kronaubach) was also an old arm of the Danube. The even older salt port of Raffelstetten to the west ( Altau , today's Aubach), the common name Ipphas for Ipf - like Kristeinbach (8th century), the possible ship canal to Reintal and also the orientation of the Lauricaum military camp allow the streams to converge quite directly and possibly also the Enns in its westernmost delta arm here in the area in antiquity and still in the Middle Ages.

The Wegkapelle , which is also a listed building, was built around 1880 .

At the Enghagener Salzamtshaus there are historically significant water levels from floods and ice rushes of the Danube.
