Esch (Hallwang municipality) from the north-west

Esch is a locality in the city of Salzburg and a village of the Hallwang municipality in the Salzburg-Umgebung district with districts in the city itself.

geography

Esch is located on the northeastern outskirts of Salzburg, north of the Heuberg . It includes the settlements along the B 1 ( Wiener Straße ) between Salzburg- Gnigl and the Zilling valley crossing of the Westautobahn (A 1), i.e. the ascent from the Salzburg basin to the altitude of the Salzburg lake area , which is around 150 meters in altitude. The steep section of the B1 shortly after the city limits is called Rennerberg . North of the Rennerberg on the Schernbach - then Zilling No. 1, today Fichtlmühlstraße - is the Fichtlmühle , where the Ischler Bahn station was until 1957.

The town of Esch in the Hallwang municipality includes the village of Oberesch ( Esch in the narrower sense,  540  m above sea level ) above the Rennerberg, the Rotte Unteresch below, near Söllheim , the village of Mayrwies-Esch (also Mayrwies ,  450  m above sea level) A. ) to the city limits. Then follows Langwied Esch in the Salzburg city area , up to the border with Gnigl, at the western end of the Heuberg. From Untersch, the local locations are largely grown together with the city. Oberesch has around 250 buildings, Unteresch around 30, Mayerwies 250, and Langwied-Esch 550 buildings. The Hallwang shares are in the cadastral community Hallwang I ; the Salzburg shares in Hallwang II belong to the Langwied district .

The hamlet of Matzing south of Oberesch up against the Heuberg and Daxlueg am Heuberg also belong to the Hallwanger local area . The surrounding area also includes the village of Zilling and the nearby Haubenödt farmstead ( counting district Oberesch ), as well as Söllheim (counting district Esch-Mayrwies ), i.e. the entire Hallwanger area south of the western motorway.

history

"Söllheim, Esch". Franzisco-Josephinische Landesaufnahme , sheet 31–48 Salzburg , around 1900

The place name is perhaps derived from the ash forest that was once stagnant at the foot of the hillside of the Heuberg . The hypothesis that it goes back to the Middle High German word esch , which denotes a field pasture and is not identical with the ash tree (mhd. Asche, esche ) , is also credibly represented . In any case, the motif of the name is the tree population that was once found here. Esch is first mentioned in a document in 1315 in the form of ash .

In the middle of the 19th century, Esch was still a small hamlet of a few houses, just under 2 hours' walk from Salzburg on what was then the Linzer Reichsstraße ; in front of the Rennerberg there was the inn in Mayrwies and otherwise only a number of individual craft houses and farms.

From 1893 the Salzkammergut local railway passed here, from Söllheim via the Hammerschmidtgraben to Zilling, with a stop at Fichtlmühle near Oberesch, with which the local development began.

In 1939, when large communities were formed everywhere in Austria during the Nazi era, the southern part of Hallwang came to Salzburg. At this time the construction of the Westautobahn began (in the area: Zillinger Viadukt ), which was largely discontinued after 1941. Construction was not completed until the late 1950s. During the same period, the Salzkammergut local railway was discontinued and dismantled. Its former route now serves as a hiking route for pedestrians and cyclists ( Söllheimer Wanderweg / Radweg L261).

In the 1970s an extensive industrial area was created between Gnigl ​​and Rennerberg, and since the 1990s increasingly in Oberesch in connection with the Eugendorf-Straß industrial area, so that an economically powerful axis emerged here. The area received a further impetus for urban development through the settlement of the Rudolf Steiner School (Waldorf School) in Salzburg in 1994 and in 2006 through the establishment of the new St. Severin parish for the Salzburg part of Esch.
