history
In the course of the administrative reforms after the revolution of 1848/49 , the municipality of Glantschach was established in 1850 from seven tax or cadastral municipalities that had previously belonged to two different tax districts ( Gradenegg , Kraig and Nussberg ). The first mayor of the community was Peter Kernmair (the grandfather of the later governor of Carinthia Ferdinand Kernmaier ).
From 1850 the community belonged to the political district of Sankt Veit an der Glan and to the judicial district of Sankt Veit an der Glan . From 1854 to 1868 it belonged to the mixed district of Sankt Veit . The reforms in 1868 made it part of the political district of Sankt Veit an der Glan and the judicial district of Sankt Veit an der Glan, where it remained until it was dissolved.
In 1875 the cadastral communities of Glantschach and Rottschaft Feistritz were connected to the neighboring community of Pulst. The municipality of Glantschach lost not only about 4.8 km² and 334 inhabitants, but also the eponymous capital. The remainder of the community was continued as the community of Sörg.
Due to the structural reforms of the community in the second half of the 20th century, the entire former community area now belongs to the community of Liebenfels.
