History of Fohnsdorf

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The coat of arms of Fohnsdorf

The history of Fohnsdorf , a municipality in the Murtal district , begins around 2000 BC. With the first settlement towards the end of the Neolithic . It was mentioned for the first time in 1141 as "Fanestorf". Fohnsdorf was owned by the Duchy of Salzburg until 1805 , and an economic upswing was noticeable through coal mining . The population has been falling since the coal mine was closed in 1978.

Beginning of settlement / Roman Empire

The Aichfeld , on whose northern border Fohnsdorf lies, was settled towards the end of the Neolithic Age (around 2000 BC). Buildings and objects of daily use have been found in the area around Fohnsdorf from this period . The settlement of Fohnsdorf during the Hallstatt period (800 to 450 BC) is documented; the cult car from Strettweg , which was found in 1851 three kilometers southwest of Fohnsdorf in the town of Judenburg, comes from this time .

From 15 BC Until the 5th century the area belonged to the Roman Empire . As a result of the expansion of the Norische Hauptstraße from today's Italy via the Perchauer Sattel ( Perchau am Sattel , Murau district ), about 40 kilometers west of Fohnsdorf, the Pölstal , about 20 kilometers northwest of Fohnsdorf and the Rottenmanner Tauern to the Danube , post stations , villas , Farms and settlements built. There are finds from the area around Fohnsdorf from Roman times; the Oberzeiring bridge could come from this time; No settlement can be found in Fohnsdorf itself. After 476 (the dissolution of the Western Roman Empire ), the majority of the Roman population emigrated, with few locals remaining.

"... dependence on Rome, whose rule ... was reflected in us through the expansion of the Noric main road."

middle Ages

Slavs immigrated from the 6th century and settled in old settlements along the Roman roads. Their settlements are mostly on the edges of valleys and plains. The place names Kumpitz and Sillweg - districts of Fohnsdorf - as well as Flatschach (Spielberg) and Strettweg (Judenburg) are demonstrably of Slavic origin. Kumpitz was mentioned in a document in 1148 as "Chuntuz" and 1285 as "Chuntwiz", Strettweg 1149 as "Strevic" and 1181 as "Strethwich" (probably: "streckovice": a place where there are many brakes ). Flatschach comes from the old Slavic word "blacah" and means "with the people on the moss" or "the settlement on the moss". Göttschach (in Rattenberg) was so named by Slavic farmers (Slavic: "goricah"; means "with the people on the small mountain").

The Slavic Principality of Carantania emerged in the 7th century in what is now Carinthia and is considered the first independent and stable state structure after the Great Migration , which is said to have been decisive for the history of Carinthia , Styria and Slovenia . 740 asked Borouth , the first named Slav prince of Carantania, Duke Odilo of Bavaria (before 700-748) for help in the fight against the Avars . The Avars were defeated in 741 and the Karantans came under Bavarian and later Frankish rule. Bavarian aristocrats and farmers then came to the Fohnsdorf area and founded mansions and new villages from the 9th century . According to a document dated November 20, 860, Ludwig the German , King of Eastern Franconia , gave the Prince Archbishopric of Salzburg large estates in the area around Fohnsdorf, including the royal court "ad Pellisam" (Pöls), which Fohnsdorf probably belonged to.

The division of land suggests that Fohnsdorf could have been founded during the Carolingian era in the 9th century, and the parish church could also have been built around this time. In the 10th and 11th centuries, especially after the victory over the Hungarians in the Battle of Lechfeld in 955, new Bavarian villages were founded in and around Fohnsdorf: Dinsendorf ("the village of Tunzo"; second half of the 12th century: "Tůncendorf"), Dietersdorf ("the village of Dietrich"; about 1080: Dietrichsdorf), Riegersdorf ("the village of Rudiger"; 1443: "Rugersdorf") and Hetzendorf ("the village of Hezo", 1055: Hezindorf).

Fohnsdorf itself was referred to as "Fanestorf" in 1141 and later as "Fanstorf". It is unclear whether this place name also comes from Slavic. According to common belief, this name means “village of Ban”, since b became f in the sound shift . A Ban was a leader of the Avars who immigrated with the Slavs and had their headquarters in the Lavant Valley . If this interpretation of the name was correct, Fohnsdorf would have been the residence of such a ban, this cannot be said with certainty.

The existing estate was probably expanded into a castle in the 12th century, from which the Salzburg property in Aichfeld and Murtal was administered, and a dairy was part of the castle. From the end of the 13th century onwards, farmsteads and châteaux came to the courts and hubs for very little reason. At the beginning, the village should have consisted of four larger courtyards and 20 smaller hubs.

Two Zehenthöfe are known from 1282 , one was inhabited by the mother of the knight Rudolf von Fohnsdorf and the second by the archbishop's bailiff . Apparently these were the riding stables belonging to the "Jaklwirt" and the "Gappmayrhof". From 1555 the farms "vulgo Eckarthof" and the Zehent- or "Schellhammerhof" are known. The monastery Göß owned in Fohnsdorf in 1230, in 1324 there were four hubs. In 1295 Heinrich II. , Bishop of the diocese of Seckau (today the diocese of Graz-Seckau ) owned three hubs, six farms and twelve fields in Fohnsdorf.

Modern times

Until the Peace of Pressburg in 1805, Fohnsdorf was owned by the Duchy of Salzburg (now the Archdiocese of Salzburg ) and was divided into seven manors until serfdom was abolished in Austria in 1848 . Most of the buildings belonged to the sovereignty of Fohnsdorf, one or more houses to the manors of Großlobming , Paradeiskloster (Judenburg), Authal , Pfarrval Fohnsdorf, Reifenstein and Liechtenstein .

The beginning of coal production in Fohnsdorf brought with it an economic upturn. In 1670 lignite was found west of Dietersdorf and five years later, under Johann Adolf I. Prince Schwarzenberg, an open-cast mine near Dietersdorf was put into operation. The deposit was in his real estate administered from Murau . His attempts to use coal in his own hammer mills failed, the mining itself was only approved after five years of dispute with the Vordernberg authorities. Charcoal dominated Austria until 1760/90 , before Maria Theresa and Joseph II tried to make extensive use of hard coal . Most of the coal mines known to date in Austria were founded between 1760 and 1790, but the upswing did not begin until 50 years later. Until 1840 the coal was primarily used for the production of alum (brewing hut). Coal was burned and the alum salt leached from the ashes, which was sold worldwide. Only the commissioning of the steel and rolling mills in Judenburg and Zeltweg led to a profitable increase in coal mining. In 1840 the largest Styrian alum smelters in Dietersdorf and Sillweg stopped their production, those in Parschlug and Steyregg cut back production considerably.

A hammer or scythe mill has been known in Passhammer since the 15th century , which was later expanded into a steel and rolling mill (1870–1901). There was also the sheet metal and iron works Styria in Wasendorf (1870–1942), the Hetzendorfer sheet metal rolling mill (1872–1918) and the Hetzendorfer brown cardboard factory (1889–1916).

After the end of the 18th century (1800), the tunnel construction began.

19th century

Franziszeischer Cadastre (1823/24)

In 1823/24 the Franziszeische Cadastre for Fohnsdorf was created. The industrialization had little meaning, so 90 percent of the population were in the agriculture business. In Aichfeld there were collective settlements and a few individual farmsteads outside of these settlements. The only buildings outside the villages were the Gabelhofen Castle - owned by the Gabelkhofner until 1775 and owned by the Liechtenstein family from 1827 - with a farm building, three farms in Wasendorf, a scythe factory on Pölsbach and a farm on the road from Aichdorf to Judenburg .

Hetzendorf was settled on the northern terrace edge of the road from Fohnsdorf to Judenburg - crossing over the Pölsbach; In Aichdorf there were two rows of settlements on terraces and individual farmsteads on the valley floor of the Pölsbach. On the northern edge of the Aichfeld were the hamlets of Dinsendorf, Göttschach and Kumpitz, the Bachuferdörfer Dietersdorf and Rattenberg, the square village Sillweg and the clustered village Fohnsdorf. There were scattered settlements in the Allerheiligengraben, in the west of the Dietersdorfer Graben and north of Rattenberg .

The entire Aichfeld was mainly used for arable farming, the terraced slopes of the Pölsbach were used exclusively for grassland management . The area south of the Pölsbach was a forest area that reached as far as the Mur and consisted mostly of fir and spruce forests . In the northeast of Aichdorf and south of Hetzendorf there were also remnants of this forest area, which originally covered the entire Aichfeld. The lower parts of the slopes consisted of fields , at the transition to the mountains there was grassland.

The following are the area divisions according to the Franziszeischen Cadastre:

1840s

Due to the great shortage of labor, foreign workers settled there as a result of labor migration , so in 1880 45 residents spoke Slovene (41 of them in Dietersdorf). In 1890 there were 289 (3.5 percent of the population). In 1900 the number fell to 137 and rose again to 260 by 1910. Company expansions and improvements led to a 50 percent population growth from 1880 to 1890. Almost all districts - with the exception of the Steinmetzgrabens - had a positive population balance. Fohnsdorf has been structurally expanded - along the main road, around the Wodzicki shaft and in Wasendorf (northwest of Mitterweg). Population growth later declined and stagnated in Kumpitz and Rattenberg, Wasendorf initially grew and stagnated until the First World War . A quarter of the population was employed in the coal mine. Discussions about the environmental compatibility began - in 1899 the city of Judenburg complained against the "annoyed" smell of the dump - the Austrian-Alpine Montangesellschaft bore the legal costs and this led to a mutual agreement .

In 1840, mining took over the entire mine ownership of the last alum works from Anton Maria Wickerhauser . According to a suggestion by Peter Tunner and Montanärar President Lobkowitz, a puddling and rolling mill should have been built in Farrach, but the plans failed. The trades Josef Sonnhaus took advantage of the nearby mining and built in 1947 a puddling in Judenburg. From 1849 the Leoben trade company Karl Mayr owned this plant. Hugo Henckel von Donnersmarck had high freight costs with his works in Lavanttal and around 1850 he was looking for a new location near the mining industry, which made coal the decisive location factor for the iron industry . Karl Mayr was able to push away from Donnersmarck to the confluence of the Pölsbach into the Mur near Zeltweg, but in the next few years the Henckel von Donnersmarcksche puddling and rolling mill with its first steam operation surpassed the Judenburg plant. Railway tracks from Zeltweg were in demand throughout the Austrian Empire .

In 1840, 18 employees mined 1,500 tons of coal in the Fohnsdorf coal mine; by 1845 the amount extracted rose to 3,260 tons annually with 36 employees. Sales difficulties, difficult technical conditions, mine fires and a shortage of labor caused difficulties in the 1840s. The labor shortage was made up by non-resident workers. In 1852 the estate was acquired with residential buildings in order to build building sites for workers' apartments . In the same year, the construction of two single homes (Hauptstrasse 36 and 38) for 170 to 180 people each began. In the “Upper Colony” six eight-family houses with a total of 48 room kitchen apartments were built. In the vicinity of the Josefischacht, houses were built in Hauptstrasse 53, 55 and 57 and on Hochwiesenweg 1 and 5, as well as one building each in Sillweg am Karlschacht and Judenburg an der Mur next to the later cast steelworks . The political municipality of Fohnsdorf was established in 1849/50.

1850s

In 1850 no more than 100 people were employed in any of the three shafts; in 1857 there were about eight civil servants , 52  permanent employees and 328  periodic workers .

Karl Mayr and Hugo Henckel von Donnersmarck acquired coal fields in Sillweg (east of Fohnsdorf; Karl-Schacht and Eduard-Stollen) in 1850 and 1855, in order to be able to cover the coal demand partly independently of the Arar. The geological advantages of owning the Montanärar could not be offset by the two trades. With an annual output of around 5,000 to 20,000 tons, they achieved around 5 to 30 percent of the output of the Montanärar. Around 1850 a race between the private trades Hugo Henckel von Donnersmarck, Karl Mayr and Johann Adolf II. Zu Schwarzenberg began. Small coal deposits, some of which were not worth mining, were mined in Authal, Holzbrücken (near Knittelfeld), Kobenz, Maria Buch, Obdach, Sankt Oswald (near Möderbrugg) and Weißkirchen (where zu Schwarzenberg had been mining since 1870). For a long time, the deposit in the Feeberggraben, discovered in 1821, gained greater importance. There zu Schwarzenberg mined 315,000 tons of coal from 1834 to 1896 with the two mines Johann Adolf and Josephie (built in 1872/73 and 1884).

The annual rate of increase in coal mining was 20 percent in Styria and 36 percent in Fohnsdorf. Thus, the decided Aerar , the first two planned since 1853 mines to sink . Civil engineering had been introduced in the Ruhr area a few years earlier . In 1857/58 the Josefi and Lorenzi shafts were put into operation with steam-powered cable drums , wooden conveyor frames , rack conveyors and underground dewatering machines. After the international economic crisis of 1857/59 they only became effective after the depression that followed. With an annual rate of increase of 31 percent, the provisional maximum output of 263,000 tons was reached in 1875.

In 1854, with the General Austrian Mining Act , legal regulations on mining (mining) were made for the first time . Service regulations, termination of the employment relationship , payment of wages , issuing of discharge certificates and the keeping of a team book were regulated.

1860s

According to the census in Austria-Hungary in 1869 , 3345 people lived in Fohnsdorf. In 1868 the Rudolfsbahn was opened, in 1870 with the Fohnsdorfer Bahn a branch line to Zeltweg was opened and Fohnsdorf was connected to the rail network. The pits Antoni ( Dietersdorf ), Josefi (in the west of the town center) and Lorenzi (in the east of the town center) were provided with siding until 1900 . By 1880 the population increased by 61.9 percent (in comparison: Graz : 23.3 percent, Judenburg: 28.1 percent, Köflach : 58.8 percent).

The Montanärar could not record this upswing for itself. After the loss of the German War against the Kingdom of Prussia in 1866, the Austrian Empire was forced to make far-reaching changes. Hugo Henckel von Donnersmarck , previously the main buyer of coal with around 45 percent, took advantage of this situation skillfully, acquired the coal mine in 1869 on favorable terms and a week later, together with his factory in Zeltweg, was able to sell it to the newly founded Styrian Iron Industry Society at a large profit to sell. During the founding period , the Steirische Eisenindustrie-Gesellschaft began in 1870 with the sinking of a third underground construction east of Kumpitz, the Antoni Shaft. 1870/74 were one in Zeltweg Bessemer steel plant and a Kokshochofenanlage built of various public companies - mostly from anonymous -general in Vienna - financed.

1870s

A major factor in industrial development was the expansion of the rail network in Austria . In 1868 construction began on the Rudolfsbahn in Upper Styria, and in 1872 it was open from Villach to Amstetten . In 1871 the Antoni, Josefi and Lorenzi pits were connected to the international rail network by the branch line to Zeltweg ( Fohnsdorfer Bahn ). Hopes were placed in the processing of brown and bright coal , but only 20 percent of Fohnsdorf coal could be processed in addition to the coke. After this disappointing result and the loss-making purchase of a supposed ore district at Tulleck near Eisenerz , the Styrian Iron Industry Society suffered an annual loss of 200,000 Austrian guilders (equivalent to 1.94 euros each ) after 1873 . After 1869, the investment and mortgage had quickly eaten up the share capital, through which was after 1873 founder noise not profitable economies possible.

The municipal boundaries were first corrected in 1874 when the villages of Zeltweg and Farrach were separated.

Since the output rose to 263,000 tons of coal by 1875, work horses were used for the first time .

In 1878, 1044 workers were employed in the Fohnsdorf coal mine, of which 224 married people lived in company apartments and 650 single people lived in the two single homes.

According to a 1873 physician Johann Hammerschmied published statistics of the coal mining Fohnsdorf totaled 175.5  illnesses per 100 employees in the leading group in which mortality was Fohnsdorf with 3.06 percent of 100 workers behind the ironstone mining in Reichenau an der Rax (3.63 percent ) on second place.

1880s

On July 19, 1881, the Austrian Alpine Mining Company was founded in order to combine the areas of raw materials , supply , goods production and trade through economic integration and to overcome the economic crisis. The company emerged from the union of the Neuberg-Mariazeller union , the Steirische Eisenindustrie-Gesellschaft , the Vordernberg-Köflacher Montangesellschaft , the St. Egydy-Kindberger Iron and Steel Industry Society and the Hüttenberger Eisenwerk-Gesellschaft . The French banker Eugéne Bontoux was a financier. He was arrested the following year in Paris because of the collapse of his house bank, Societé de l'Union Génerale . With the help of the Länderbank and through rationalization and centralization , the Österreichisch-Alpine Montangesellschaft was able to increase its profit by 1914 from two million guilders (converted 19.38 euros) to eleven million guilders (converted 106.59 euros).

"Since 1881, Alpine has been the undisputed largest coal mining company in the Austrian Alpine countries and Fohnsdorf, ahead of Seegraben and Voitsberg-Köflach, the most important coal mining within the Alpine."

- Helmut Lackner, Karl Stocker : Fohnsdorf - rise and crisis of an Austrian coal mining community in the Aichfeld-Murboden region; Interdisciplinary studies by the Fohnsdorf Aichfeld-Murboden project group

A double shaft system was planned as early as 1881 . The Wodzicki-Schacht was named after the first President Ludwig Graf Wodzicki (1881-1892) and the Karl August-Schacht after the first General Director Karl August von Frey (1881-1893). The planning and execution, to eight years and one million guilders (one guilder corresponded to 9.69 euro) estimated , the new director was Ludwig Hess of Hessenthal transmitted. Financing was made possible through the sale of 126,000 hectares of forest - made superfluous by the closure of most of the charcoal blast furnaces . Work began on the Karl August shaft in Wasendorf in 1882 and on the Wodzicki shaft in 1884. The two shafts - about two kilometers apart - were connected to each other during the daytime and to the existing Antoni shaft and Lorenzi shaft. Antoni and Lorenzi shafts were initially used as weather shafts . Both shafts were 450  PS strong twin steam carriers of Andritzer Maschinenfabrik equipped. Two one-meter-wide cable drums were driven via crankshafts , on which the hoisting rope wound up and unwound side by side and moved the four-tier hoist cage over the sheaves on the headframe . One main and one reserve winder with 350 HP each with bobbin conveyance enabled the use of four conveyor baskets. In the case of conveyor technology , the traction sheave conveyor , which has been patented since 1877 , was dispensed with, but the latest technical development was taken into account in the conveyor frames. The model was the Hugo colliery , designed by Johann Carl Otto Hugo Baron von Promnitz and Promnitzau - at the Fohnsdorf mine it was probably the first use of a double strut frame (in the Ruhr area it was first used in 1895 at the Zollverein VI colliery ).

1890s

The processing plant was designed and largely automated by Fohnsdorf engineer Anton Oberegger . As a result, the proportion of female workers fell to eight percent in 1890 (2036 men, 176 women). According to Oberegger's patent, the Škoda company from Pilsen ( Kingdom of Bohemia ) delivered 33 sorting systems within Europe by 1899. At the Wodzicki shaft there was a dewatering machine with 650 hp, which could lift 4.3  cubic meters of water per minute, and a boiler house that supplied the steam energy for the entire shaft operation.

The only notable weak point in the new concept was the weather management . Fans had been installed at the Antoni, Josefi and Lorenzi shafts , and as the depth increased, it was inevitable to sink separate weather shafts due to the high methane content and the increasing heat . Karl Wittgenstein , central director and main shareholder of the Prager Eisenindustrie-Gesellschaft , obtained the majority ownership of the Austrian-Alpine Montangesellschaft in 1897 with the help of Creditanstalt and eleven straw men known by name with 80,000 shares. Anton von Kerpely (1897–1903) became general director .

In 1890 the number of 2,500 workers was reached, in the same year the Austrian Alpine Mining Company employed 10,650 a quarter of all Styrian industrial workers, in the Judenburg district this proportion was 60 percent (mainly because of the Fohnsdorf and Zeltweg locations).

20th century

Before the First World War

With the investments made at the end of the 19th century, the production volume could be increased noticeably. With an average workforce of 2,000 to 2,500, the production volume rose from 265,700 tons in 1881 to 606,000 tons in 1906. One fifth of Styrian coal was mined in Fohnsdorf - this could only be achieved again shortly before the outbreak of the global economic crisis . In 1903 32 horses were still  used for underground mining , later they switched to petrol locomotives (1907) and pneumatic hammers. The boiler houses were expanded to include compressors for generating compressed air . In 1908 more than 2,600 people were employed and two steam turbines with 1000 and 2000 hp were installed at the Wodzicki shaft , which enabled the electrical lighting of both shafts from 1910 . After the central ventilation, the Antoni, Josefi and Lorenzi shafts were shut down, in the Antoni mining area a new, smaller shaft was sunk from 1910 to 1912 with an electric conveyor reel , which from 1929 received an iron strut frame and was used as an auxiliary shaft. In 1910 a depth of 583 meters was reached.

Interwar period

In the interwar period , population growth stagnated: from 1910 to 1923 it was 1.3 percent. This value is due to the growth in cities like Judenburg (+2.1 percent) and Graz (+3 percent) as well as in new industrial cities like Kapfenberg (+33.9 percent), Bruck an der Mur (+13.6 percent), Köflach (+11 percent) and Eisenerz (+14.3 percent) to explain. After 1926, curbing the risk of flooding began by defusing the steep trenches of the Flatschach ridge by means of torrent barriers and channeling the Fohnsdorf stream , which enabled and facilitated the construction of paved roads . In 1922 new company apartments were built at the eastern end of the village ( log houses on Landstrasse). A year earlier, civil servants' houses were built on Grazer Strasse and a settlement on Kohlenstrasse (Sillweg). In the interwar period, the first larger single-family housing estates arose : on Schlossgasse between Schloss Gabelhofen and Hetzendorf, the “Lower Colony” in Fohnsdorf (houses with two apartments for employees were built here).

"Fohnsdorf becomes the most important mine of the interwar period."

Late 1910s and 1920s

Due to overexploitation during the First World War , the company's performance limit was often reached. The 30-year-old hoisting machine did not allow for further sinking below 583 meters, which is why a blind shaft with an electric traction sheave conveyor was built in the hanging wall in 1916 , thus reaching a depth of 743 meters.

Tertiary “ luster coal ” was extracted. Although the material had a higher calorific value than the usual lignite, an economic exploitation from this depth can only be explained by the poor raw material situation in Austria after the First World War: Austria had become a small state and had coal fields in Northern Bohemia (then Kingdom of Bohemia ), Austrian -Silesia and the Margraviate of Moravia were lost, which meant that domestic supplies gained in importance.

The lignite production of the Republic of Austria fell to two million annually - less than the pre-war amount of the Duchy of Styria . The production volume in Styria was 1.4 million, about 70 percent of the total Austrian lignite production. After failed attempts at nationalization , the coal and steel industry - especially the Austrian-Alpine Mining Society - increasingly came under non-Austrian influence. With 56.6 percent, Hugo Stinnes ( Weimar Republic ) had the majority of the shares since 1921, and the United Steelworks founded by Albert Vögler since 1926 . Anton Apold was the general director from 1922 to 1935 .

From 1923 to 1929 rationalizations were carried out, the improvements only had a limited effect due to the global economic crisis and the associated reduction in coal demand .

Between 1921 and 1925 and 1929/30 the machine equipment was completely renewed and a central machine house was built. The boiler house was rebuilt in 1921/22 , was equipped with four vertical tube boilers with 15  atmospheres (conversion: 14.71  bar ) and was supplemented in 1929 by two vertical tube boilers with 40 atmospheres (conversion: 39.2266 bar) and 86 meter high chimneys . In 1924 and 1928 two wooden cooling towers were built. In 1924/25, the entire surface operation of the Wodzicki shaft was reorganized according to a plan from September 1922. Between 1924 and 1926 the three power plants of the Österreichisch-Alpine Montangesellschaft in Donawitz, Eisenerz and Fohnsdorf were connected with a long-distance line, Fohnsdorf was the largest electrical center within the company and the third largest steam power plant in Austria. In 1925, a new twin tandem hoisting machine with 3600 hp and a piston composite compressor with 1410 hp and 12,000 cubic meters of air per minute - both supplied by Friedrich Wilhelms-Hütte in Mülheim an der Ruhr - were installed.

With 506,300 tons of coal, Fohnsdorf supplied roughly a quarter of the Styrian production and almost half of the Austrian-Alpine Montangesellschaft in 1929. Mining Seegraben and Voitsberg – Köflach followed with 335,600 and 303,900 tons of coal .

1930s

Due to the global economic crisis , production fell by 15 percent by 1931 (from 506,000 to 335,500 tons) - better than in the export-dependent iron industry due to the Fuel Act for the promotion of domestic coal. In the second half of 1931 the Karl-August-Schacht had to be shut down for a few months , from 1935 the economic situation improved again and the production rates of the time before the First World War were reached.

General director Anton Apold was a leading supporter of the Styrian Homeland Security . The local heritage protection tour included the Fohnsdorf mountain director Emil Kahr and the mountain inspector Lothar Johanny as well as the farmer Siebenbäck as district guide. In the federal state of Austria , the Österreichisch-Alpine Montangesellschaft was subordinated to Government Commissioner Josef Oberegger (Federal Organizational Leader of the Austrian Home Guard) in August 1934 , and he was appointed General Director in March 1935. The independent trade union - a cooperation with the Styrian Homeland Security - was founded to propagate the ideology of DINTA . Fohnsdorf received its top position among the Austrian coal mines due to estimated coal reserves of 25 to 30 million tons.

By 1937, steam operation was gradually discontinued and electric conveyor reels were installed. Of the original boiler house - fires of 1889/89 built was 36 meters high, standing up the 1979th The Strebbruchbau with up to 200 meters long pursuit was introduced.

Second World War

Due to a lack of investment and overexploitation , profitability sank during the Second World War . On August 6, 1943 there was a devastating firedamp explosion in the "Zweierfeld" . Of the 123 employees in the mine, 100 lost their lives. The construction of a third cooling tower in 1940, the renewal of the first cooling tower in 1941 and the reconstruction of the Karl August weather shaft sheave frame in 1943 were replacement investments due to the war . In 1940 an attempt was made to further sink the Wodzicki shaft, which failed due to a water ingress.

The most defining structural expansion was built during the Second World War : Auerlingstrasse (at that time Hermann-Göring-Siedlung ), which with 121 residential units was the first large residential complex in Fohnsdorf. On February 12, 1942, the rest of the Kumpitz community was attached to Fohnsdorf. The “Styria” iron works were relocated from Wasendorf to Liezen and Krems on the Danube between 1939 and 1942 , which exacerbated an economic setback after the Second World War.

1940s

In the post-war period, a phase of stagnation and economic collapse set in, after which the ample coal reserves in Austria were increasingly being mined. Immediately after the end of the war, production was halved to 286,000 tonnes of coal and, as an emergency solution, the blind shaft from 1916 was sunk to 985 meters.

92 percent of the coal mining industry had been nationalized since 1946, and since 1949 it was consolidated into the Kohlenholding GmbH . Coal was therefore important as cheap energy for the reconstruction.

1950s

In 1950, an electric drum hoist was installed in the sunk blind shaft . Towards the end of the 1950s, global economic difficulties led to a decline in production: coal was replaced by cheaper crude oil . In Fohnsdorf the shift time was shortened and an annual deficit (also called “loss”) was achieved. At the beginning of the 1960s, a closure was discussed, but was delayed until 1977/78.

In the mid-1950s, Austria achieved the highest production volumes with 6.88 million tons of coal. The boiler house in Fohnsdorf was modernized: an SGP high-pressure boiler was installed in 1955, an electric piston compressor in 1950 and an Oerlikon steam turbo compressor in 1959. Modern cutting machines were introduced and the weather shaft headframe at the Wodzicki shaft was raised and the steam hoisting machine was replaced in 1951 by a traction sheave machine from Waagner-Biro AG . By 1957, the production volume rose to 671,600 tons of coal. In 1959 the depth was 1,134 meters - 414  meters below sea level . In 1957 mining had passed its peak and lost its primacy.

Former top climber Franz Hager, who witnessed two firedamp explosions up close, reported: “We came to Fohnsdorf on January 2nd, 1950. We knew that methane gas was present in the Fohnsdorf lignite seams. On the first day of my shift there was a firedamp explosion in the morning before the shift started. Not only was it a gas explosion, it was also a coal dust explosion. More than ten buddies were dead, others had very bad burns and were struggling to survive in the factory hospital. The miners lay criss-crossed on the track. ”In the second firedamp explosion eight years later, two climbers and eight miners were killed. Gas safety lamps had to be carried in hazardous areas of the mine. If the flame of the lamp exceeded the upper edge of the cylinder, the room was considered explosive. With water veils attempt was made to bring the explosive for a few minutes under control in order to allow the miners to escape, which is not always successful - since 1910 were more than 270 fatalities.

1960s

In contrast to other places where the trend towards single-family homes became increasingly active from 1960 onwards , it began in Fohnsdorf as early as the post-war years: In order to boost production, the miners were allowed to mine coal in their free time in the Antoni Revier ( open-cast mine ) brought them additional income. The houses were mostly one-story with a steep pitched roof (to enable an attic extension). The other construction activity was low, since no structural losses were suffered during the Second World War . In the 1950s, was in Dietersdorf a pool built, redesigned the main square and a new administration building erected. The first houses in the Gabelhofensiedlung on the Fohnsdorf – Judenburg connection on the main road to Italy were built around 1960, and trade and industry also settled there. Hetzendorf was expanded with single family houses and a regular street network ( checkerboard pattern ) as well as houses in the old town center and buildings north of the Pölsbach and the Gartengasse. Aichdorf grew on the northern bank of the Pöls towards the west and in the northeast on the connection to Rattenberg. Single-family houses were built on the so-called "Hochwiesen" in Dietersdorf and Fohnsdorf; Fohnsdorf and Dinsendorf grew together. In the 1970s, the Fohnsdorf training center and the Siemens AG and Eumig company locations were built in the south of Dietersdorf and Fohnsdorf .

Mining - until 1978 - and agriculture remained the dominant fields of activity . The labor market tightened after 1960 due to a ban on mining. Fohnsdorf developed into a commuter community (actually called "residential community"). More than half of the commuters worked in Judenburg, a quarter in Zeltweg and others in Knittelfeld and Pöls (today Pöls-Oberkurzheim). The property was divided between farmers, workers in single-family housing estates and mining areas and settlements belonging to the Graz-Köflacher Railway and Mining Company .

As a result of the ban on admission to the Fohnsdorf mine, young residents emigrated and the population began to age. The retirement age - mostly for health reasons - in industry and especially in mining was under 60 years. Due to the few female jobs, it was mainly women between the ages of 20 and 30 who migrated. Fohnsdorf developed into a "retirement home". The south-facing slope offered good conditions for a place to live, but the building fabric was outdated, and the residential buildings barely met the modern living needs of the time.

The economic situation was reflected in the population development of this time: Until 1961 the number of inhabitants grew to the same extent as in all Styrian communities. Thereafter there was a decline in the mining locations (1961–1971: Fohnsdorf: –3 percent, Köflach: –0.4 percent and iron ore: –7 percent). This was the first population decline in Fohnsdorf in 50 years.

The inner Austrian production of crude oil and natural gas as well as their import from the former Soviet Union increasingly affected coal. On behalf of the Österreichisch-Alpine Montangesellschaft , an appraisal of the Fohnsdorf mine was drawn up in 1962 - based on this appraisal, neither investments nor modernizations were made, but rather improvised.

1970s

The obsolescence of the residential buildings in Fohnsdorf was also due to the low level of destruction in World War II : Knittelfeld and Zeltweg had to carry out extensive reconstruction to replace their losses. The construction activity in Fohnsdorf after 1960 can be traced back to the one- and two-family construction. In 1971, 83.5 percent did not correspond to the modern living standard of the time - in comparison: Judenburg: 51.4 percent, Knittelfeld: 57.2 percent and Zeltweg: 57.2 percent. "Residential suburbs" at that time such as Kobenz (24.5 percent), Spielberg near Knittelfeld (44.6 percent) or Oberweg (27.3 percent) were better equipped.

By 1970 the output sank to 500,000 tons and by 1975 to 400,000 tons. The number of workers fell from 2000 (1957) to 1100 (1975). From 1976, the closure of the mining industry was considered safe, 62.2 percent of the miners were over 40 years old. On March 17, 1977 the final decommissioning decision of the Graz-Köflacher Eisenbahn- und Bergbaugesellschaft was before, on December 27, 1978 the mine was closed. After the mining industry was closed in 1977/78, a quarter of the jobs were lost and 47 percent of the working population was able to be employed, and the number of commuters skyrocketed. Immediately afterwards, the Wodzicki shaft was filled with 17,184 cubic meters of filling material (blast furnace granulate with cement and water ). The last 870 miners - many of them family men - lost their jobs. Almost all employees found a new job - many in Köflach, in the Donawitz ironworks or in the VÖEST factory in Zeltweg . In 1975 the Fohnsdorf training center was founded and the Eumig company (later AT&S ) took on over 300 workers and Siemens set up a training center .

With the help of the Aichfeld-Murboden development company (EGAM for short), 135 apartments were built in two large apartment blocks in Dietersdorf (Bahndammgasse). The settlement is called "Sautrogsiedlung" in colloquial language. Due to the number of 770 substandard apartments , further renovations and new buildings were necessary.

1980s

From Montan Historical Society , the Miners' Association and the Upper Increase Othmar German man, Paul and Franz Köfl Menapace has been mining museum Fohnsdorf built and opened the 1,983th The construction cost six million schillings (the equivalent of 436,036.80 euros).

21st century

2000s

On November 6, 2003, the then mayor, Johann Straner, was shot and seriously injured by Klement Pernthaller - the trigger was the official ban on a snack stand. The assassin then shot himself. He was hit by two bullets in the stomach and chest - he owes his life to the fact that a projectile was deflected from the watch strap.

In 2006, the water bottler Triple A Aqua Service began building a new bottling hall in Fohnsdorf.

AT & S's Fohnsdorf production site was closed at the beginning of 2006, and almost all of the 365 employees moved to the Hinterberg site .

2007

In February 2007 it became known that there would be problems with financing the construction of the Fohnsdorf thermal baths , 12.1 million euros would have to be financed by outside funds.

Since March 2007 the company Biowärme Wildbolz from Sankt Johann am Tauern has been responsible for the energy supply of the Fohnsdorf thermal baths. Company boss Siegfried Wildbolz was "pleased" about the cooperation. Biowärme Wildbolz built the two million euro boiler house, which is supposed to cover the energy consumption of 250 private households. The wood chip suppliers, who also come from the region, deliver around 12,000 cubic meters of wood chips per year  . The heat supplier is Fernwärme Fohnsdorf , a subsidiary of the municipality of Fohnsdorf and the Judenburg municipal utility . The then mayor Johann Straner emphasized that “the thermal baths were a project for the whole region”. The then mayor of Judenburg, Grete Gruber, calls for "full support" at the federal level. The then President of the Austrian Farmers' Union , Fritz Grillitsch , said: "The added value remains in the region, the independent supply is ensured, and the contribution to climate protection."

In May 2007, the Higher Education Institute for Business Professions (HLW) Fohnsdorf founded a theater group consisting of nine students for the first time . “ The Little Prince ” by the French author Antoine de Saint-Exupéry was premiered . The idea of ​​the theater group comes from the pupil Kerstin Haider, the responsible teacher was “immediately hooked”. Michaela Kobenz said: “It was really fun. I only had a small role, but it was still very difficult to get used to the role. "

After the ÖVP was of the opinion that a tender would have been necessary for the construction of the Fohnsdorf thermal baths , the supervisory authority of the State of Styria dealt with the case. The mayor at the time, Johann Straner, had argued with an opinion from the awarding expert Josef Aicher , which had come to the conclusion that a tender was not necessary. The supervisory authority gave Straner and the Aicher's report the right, as the Fohnsdorf Errichtungs- und BetriebsGmbH thermal bath is not a public institution.

In 2007, instead of the federal government, the state of Styria paid 1.7 million euros in funding for the Fohnsdorf thermal baths. The ÖVP voted against, the SPÖ decided to pay out single-handedly. The payout was an interim financing until the funds from the Austria Wirtschaftsservice Gesellschaft are released - by 2007 she refused. In an open letter to the then Deputy Governor Hermann Schützenhöfer , written by all SPÖ members and mayors of the districts of Knittelfeld, Judenburg and Murau, it was said about the voting behavior: "We are deeply disappointed and outraged." The ÖPV appealed to the vote on "inconsistencies". The then club chairman Christopher Drexler referred to the then Fohnsdorf Mayor Johann Straner as " Andrea Herberstein of the SPÖ", to which Straner countered: "In contrast to Ms. Herberstein, I did everything properly." In 2007, many white storks settled in and around Fohnsdorf - at that time around 30 were observed - which is atypical for this region. In 2007, the "Cycling Week" took place for the second time under the organizer Richard Gressl. Last year, the 24-hour race was replaced by a cycling week, where you can choose from three routes. The longest route leads 125 kilometers through all the communities in Aichfeld. In the music school Fohnsdorf there is a since September 2007 Musical Academy , at the beginning took 28 people aged nine to 29 years in part. The initiator was musical singer and dancer Gernot Kranner - he said: "I am glad that we are allowed to take this step with the help of Mayor Johann Straner."

On September 27, 2007, Fohnsdorf was awarded the title of “Most Innovative Municipality” by the Austrian Association of Municipalities for the design of the homepage www.fohnsdorf.at . The then Vice Mayor Günter Pirker was responsible for the implementation. The award ceremony took place in Klagenfurt am Wörthersee (then Klagenfurt ). The Fohnsdorf thermal baths opened on December 7, 2007, and the indoor swimming pool in Fohnsdorf was closed as a result. As a result of the construction of the Fohnsdorf thermal baths, the Landhotel Timmerer in Pölstal (then Sankt Oswald-Möderbrugg ) was expanded - with a new entrance with reception, new lobby, new staircase with elevator and new breakfast room. At that time, the company could look back on 50 years of history.

The then Deputy Governor Hermann Schützenhöfer made it clear in November 2007 that “the capacity limits for new thermal baths have been reached in Styria.” Therefore, only the Narzissen Vital Resort in Bad Aussee and the Grimming Therme in Bad Mitterndorf should receive financial support from the planned thermal baths . The projects Therme Fohnsdorf, Hotel & Asia Spa in Leoben , Loisium Wine & Spa Resort in Ehrenhausen an der Weinstrasse (then Ehrenhausen ) and Rosseggertherme in Kindberg (then Allerheiligen im Mürz Valley ) were no longer supported by the State of Styria.

In November 2007, the then mayor Johann Straner was interviewed about the Fohnsdorf thermal baths. He said that no private investors were found for the Fohnsdorf thermal baths because the project was badly talked about "in the media and from the highest political level". However, the thermal baths would offer the region “a perspective” and become a “weatherproof year-round destination”.

The Fohnsdorf thermal baths include a wave and current pool as well as a 60 meter long black hole slide . A sports pool is filled with normal water, a children's pool, a relaxation area and a sanua area are available. The thermal bath includes a restaurant.

2008

By Gault Millau was Gabelhofen Schloss awarded 13 points (a hood) of 2008. On January 1, 2008, the 50-year-old Graz technical college technician Friedrich Uitz took over the management of the Fohnsdorf training center instead of the 61-year-old Johann Reiter, who was retiring . Around 200 people are employed in the training center and it is financed by the Public Employment Service .

On February 1, 2008, the parcel delivery base in Fohnsdorf, along with those in Dietach , Großwilfersdorf , Liezen , Sankt Georgen, Vitis and Wörgl, was closed. 15 employees were affected and there were no layoffs. At the beginning of 2008, the municipality had to take out another loan of one million euros for the construction of the thermal bath. Christian Rechberger, head of tourism at Therme Bad Waltersdorf in Bad Waltersdorf , saw no direct competition from the newly opened Therme Fohnsdorf.

Before the end of the first semester of the Fohnsdorf Musical Academy, it was decided to continue the same.

At a municipal council meeting in February 2008, it became known that the proceeds from the 2006 bike race had not been used for a good cause and that the municipality had made a loss of 17,000 euros. ÖVP municipal council Volkart Kienzl submitted an urgency request because the supervisory authority is checking the 2006 cycling marathon and various cash flows. Kienzl should. Thereupon the then mayor Johann Straner announced that all documents of the benefit event would be presented to the supervisory authority. The then ÖVP Deputy Mayor Ingrid Felfer had switched on the supervisory authority in matters of thermal spa financing, in the reply it said that formal provisions of the municipal regulations should be observed more precisely in the future. With the exception of the KPÖ councilor Elfriede Wieser, all council members agreed to a change in the zoning plan . Wieser justified her rejection: "In the interest of the population, the condition should be waited until the state government's commitments are fulfilled." On the night of March 13-14, 2008, strangers broke into HLW Fohnsdorf and broke six office doors in the library and the teacher's room and stole a digital camera. On March 31, 2008, the then Federal President Heinz Fischer visited Fohnsdorf and Judenburg .

On June 21, 2008 the state performance competition of the fire brigade took place in Austria . 3,500  fire service employees from 440 groups took part. The Baumgarten fire brigades near Gnas , Falkenstein , Schäffern and Pusterwald won . The Fohnsdorf fire brigade celebrated its 120th anniversary. In June 2008, four 15-year-old students of the 1st grade of HLW Fohnsdorf attacked a teacher - they painted and sprayed him with hairsprays (allegedly with the words “Now let's light it up”) and filmed him until the situation escalated. The students were then suspended from school. The incident was a topic of conversation in Fohnsdorf for days. The students were acquitted by the Leoben regional court.

In September 2008, the Fohnsdorf thermal baths had to close twice due to overload. In the first year since it opened on December 7, 2007, over 100,000 people visited the thermal baths - a daily average of 415 entries. Most of the guests came from the Murau district and the former Judenburg and Knittelfeld districts, there was an increasing influx from the Lavant valley . The surrounding inns benefit from this. Franz Perschler from Gasthof Perschler (20 rooms) in Rattenberg said: "Every week we come to around 20 to 25 thermal bath guests who stay with us." Therme Fohnsdorf has 13  partner companies from the region, the former Austrian skier Alexandra Meissnitzer and the Austrian duathlete and triathlete Romana Slavinec were sponsored.

In October 2008 it was announced that the Arena am Waldfeld shopping center would be expanded to include branches of the porcelain and tableware dealer Casa Bugatti , the hairdresser Hairkiller , a fashion jewelry store and the optician Pearle . 950,000 euros flow into the expansion. The headquarters of the Swedish textile trading company H&M in Vienna had already approved construction, but it did not materialize.

In an interview in November 2008, the mayor at the time, Johann Straner, said that he took time off every day from noon, went to church and visited the grave of the assassin (shot on November 7, 2003). It took him three years to take this step and I feel sorry for him. The gunshot wound often hurts, he has no feeling in his left chest or left hand. The attack made his faith deeper and made him a more relaxed person. He thinks that the Fohnsdorf thermal baths had 150,000 visitors in the first year.

On November 20, 2008, the then head of the ÖVP regional club, Christopher Drexler , spoke out in favor of carrying out a “cash fall” in “SPÖ communities” - particularly in Fohnsdorf, Köflach and Pölfing-Brunn .

2009

In 2009, as in 2008 , the Gabelhofen Castle was awarded 13 points (one toque) by Gault-Millau .

Since January 1, 2009, the money from the Fohnsdorf thermal baths has been repaid for 15 years - this made the project 2.9 million euros more expensive than planned. The project cost around 25 million euros in total. The opposition was "shaken".

In January 2009, as part of the state- wide establishment of small regions in Styria ( regional initiative Regionext ) from the communities of Fohnsdorf, Judenburg and Zeltweg and the former communities of Oberweg and Reifling, the small region of Aichfeld was founded. In 2009 Fohnsdorf had debts in the amount of 60 million euros. In February 2009, HLW Fohnsdorf students, together with their Italian teachers Kathrin Karitnig and Gerlinde Kreiter, translated the homepage of Therme Fohnsdorf into Italian - the translation into English was also carried out by HLW Fohnsdorf. Work began on transforming HLW Fohnsdorf into a “healthy school”. In beverage vending machines are on the order delivery of health officer school, Dagmar Schnedl, no sugary drinks such as cola , iced tea , Fanta and Sprite , but drinks like apple juice (injected spritzer ), Cappy , mineral water and Römerquelle emotion offered. In vending machines , instead of meat loaf cakes , Pizzastangerln and schnitzel rolls wholemeal with spreads , cheese and lean ham offered - supplied by the local butcher Helmut Sattler. Whole foods and organic ingredients are increasingly being used in the teaching kitchen . Gym teacher Regina Bogensberger teaches colleagues and students special exercises.

For the third time in a row, on February 19, 2009, the musical academy performed in the Fohnsdorf workers' home . Was listed Anatole song by the Austrian cabaret artist, actor, writer and film director Josef Hader . The songs Beauty and the Beast by the American composer Alan Menken and Moonfall from The Mystery of Edwin Drood were sung . Finally, a medley of the musical Cats by the British composer Lord Andrew Lloyd Webber was performed.

In March 2009, the crane manufacturer Rochus Penz GmbH from Fohnsdorf filed for bankruptcy at the Leoben Regional Court . 70 employees are affected and the over-indebtedness amounts to 4.9 million euros. A closure is unavoidable and a rescue company for the purpose of redevelopment is sought. The company had produced and sold timber and recycling loading cranes for trucks as well as stationary and special cranes . It had operated a service and repair workshop and traded in crane spare parts . The dismissal of 15 employees had already been unsuccessful. Another factor was the repair of broken crane pillars , which had caused annual unscheduled expenses of 1.7 million euros. 200 creditors were affected. The over-indebtedness was almost five million euros - with liabilities amounting to 8.6 million euros. The annual turnover in the previous year was 18.5 million euros. The company, founded in 1996, had mainly supplied Western European countries.

In March 2009, the students Sarah Ruckhofer and Daniela Lorberau from HLW Fohnsdorf organized the Mercedes Benz Aqualuxus Night in the Fohnsdorf thermal baths with a preparation time of six months. Ruckhofer beamed: "There has never been such a big school project." On this day there was discounted entry, a fashion show , finger food , a wine tasting and a wish balloon . Thermal bath director Hans-Christian Schautzer was delighted with the "brisk rush". At the beginning of March 2009, the then President of the Styrian Chamber of Commerce , Peter Mühlbacher , visited Fohnsdorf.

The Vienna Willibald Maurer emigrated three years of the 47th degree of latitude by the Styria and shot black and white - infrared photos . He exhibited the pictures in the Fohnsdorf Art gallery and was welcomed by cultural advisor and deputy mayor Franz Lipus. The head of the Fohnsdorf Mining Museum , Heinz Kopp, and the Zeltweg hobby photographer Otto Ritzinger were also interested in his photographs.

Since March 2009, in the HLW Fohnsdorf cashless payment be - this was edu.checkit.card introduced. Director Jörg Knauer said: “Cashless payment is the payment of the future. We want to prepare the students for it and teach them how to use the map well. " Copying is possible with this card, teachers would be relieved of the administrative work and can concentrate more on the lessons. With the introduction of the card, HLW Fohnsdorf is the first school in Styria in which cashless payment transactions are possible - there are a total of 14 pilot schools. From autumn the edu.checkit.card would probably be valid as a free travel pass .

In March 2009, planning began for a hotel next to the Fohnsdorf thermal baths . The work of tourism chairman Rudolf Fußi met with approval, the Fohnsdorf entrepreneur Koloman Knitl began planning. Talks were held with the then Deputy Governor Hermann Schützenhöfer regarding funding - in order to receive funding, “very, very good arguments” would probably have to be presented. The house would have 168 beds - four suites , 86 beds in double rooms and 68 beds in four-bed rooms . The project was estimated at 6.5 million euros and 20 jobs should have been created. In the previous year there had been an increase in overnight stays of eleven percent thanks to the Fohnsdorf thermal baths .

On April 7, 2009, the Ring Freedom Youth Austria of the former Judenburg district was founded in Fohnsdorf . 17-year-old Luca Kerbel from Fohnsdorf was elected chairman. Students from HLW Fohnsdorf created a marketing project for the roofing company Wallner Dachdeckerei / Spenglerei from Judenburg as part of the Matura project “Pimp my company” . The Folk Art Guild Fohnsdorf celebrated its 50th anniversary in May 2009. On the occasion of this, the guild invited to an exhibition in which 195 exhibits can be seen, chairman Peter Schriefl talked about the club's history at the opening. The works were on view in the Fohnsdorf Art gallery until May 15 .

In May 2009, then Mayor Johann Straner was asked about the debt level of 60 million euros and the budget deficit of 1.2 million euros in 2008. He said that he always said that it would take three years for the thermal baths to "start up". The construction of a hotel is "on track" - built by Wohnbau Fohnsdorf and funded by the State of Styria and the Austria Wirtschaftsservice Gesellschaft . Who would run the hotel is open. A medium-term financial plan provides for a balanced budget from 2011: by 2011 the municipality will repay three million euros in loans and receive three million euros from an investment. The leverage is ten percent. Should the 18 million euros from Therme Fohnsdorf "hit", there is the possibility of a deferral by Kommunalkredit Austria .

In the first year of operation, the Fohnsdorf thermal baths reported a balance sheet loss of 1.6 million euros, excluding depreciation and interest, a loss of 400,000 euros. Since January 2009, construction costs had to be repaid to Kommunalkredit Austria - 1.6 million euros per year. The municipality paid the first installment of 300,000 euros. No repayment for one year or debt rescheduling were denied by the local authority and banks. The mayor at the time, Johann Straner, nevertheless reckoned with "a black zero" - the planned hotel should have brought more occupancy. In 2008 140,000 guests were recorded, 200,000 would have been enough for the black zero. Community officer and then governor Franz Voves added 1.6 million euros to the community budget last year.

Fohnsdorf had little perspective ahead of them when the Fohnsdorf mining industry came to an end. At first AT&S and Siemens promised "rescue" and later the Fohnsdorf thermal baths. AT&S and Siemens had given up the location in Fohnsdorf - the municipality lost more than 600,000 euros per year due to the lack of municipal taxes . In addition, there are the losses in earnings shares due to the falling population - one million euros by 2009 and 300,000 euros in 2009. Social welfare costs rose by 20 percent. The then mayor Johann Straner still believed in the success of the Fohnsdorf thermal baths. Fohnsdorf had borrowed to maintain the quality of life - Arena am Waldfeld (shopping center), commercial infrastructure , a medical center and the new sports hall are part of it. Loans accounted for 24 million euros. Sewerage , water management and garbage disposal are taken over by an outsourced company - with a further nine million euros in debt. The municipality was liable to the amount of 18 million euros for the repayment of the construction costs of the Fohnsdorf thermal baths. This is not an "individual fate", but would affect Hartberg or Sinabelkirchen , among others .

After twelve years, the final version of the zoning plan was decided unanimously on May 5, 2009 . Due to the aircraft noise , parts of Aichdorf were therefore designated as open land with subsequent use as building land . The area around the main square was rededicated from Freiland to general residential area . 84 objections had to be processed beforehand, around half of which were granted. The "devaluation" of agricultural land approved the ÖVP not, otherwise the council members agreed.

On May 15 and 16, 2009 the spring concerts of the Fohnsdorf mountain band were held in the Fohnsdorf workers' home . 65 musicians from the mountain band took part. The chapel had existed since 1862, after the closure of the Fohnsdorf mine in 1978, a music association was established in 1980 from what was then a factory chapel . The Bergkapelle Fohnsdorf attaches particular importance to youth work, which can be seen in the success of the young musician achievement badge . In the 2009 Achievement Badge, 13 musicians from the Fohnsdorf mountain band achieved very good and excellent results in the bronze, silver and gold categories. Club chairman Michael Duschk said: "Last year alone we completed 63 full and partial rehearsals and were deployed a total of 78 times." The musicians achieved good results in the district concert rating and the district march rating. The motto of the concerts was "Symphonic Rock". Tyrolean soloists and the vocal ensemble of the Carinthian State Conservatory took part in the concert. On May 8, 2009, the then 82-year-old Austrian journalist Hugo Portisch visited the Fohnsdorf community library and read from his new book Die Olive und wir , which he had written together with his wife Traudi Reich . Cultural advisor and Vice Mayor Fanz Lipus attended the book presentation.

Since 1999 it has been possible to acquire the European Computer Driving License (also called “ European Computer Driving License ” or “ECDL”) at the Fohnsdorf Training Center . "Since then, more than 10,000 individual tests have been taken," said managing director Friedrich Uitz. Thomas Geretschläger from the Austrian Computer Society said that there were a total of around seven million participants in 2009, and that 40,000 people in Austria do the training every year.

On May 16, 2009, the Day of Power was held in the Arena am Waldfeld shopping center , in which strongmen from Germany , Austria , Slovenia and Hungary took part. The starting signal was given by the former Austrian boxer , wrestler , wrestler and actor Otto Wanz . The disciplines were: truck pulling (12 tons), falling tires (350 kilograms), one- arm dumbbell pushing (74 kilograms) and cardead lift (a car is lifted on one side). The Trofaiacher Franz Moser tried it with a three-ton car - this would be a world record. Wanz arrived late because he “couldn't find it at first”.

The cycling week in Fohnsdorf took place on June 6th and 7th in 2009 - for the first time not in combination with the 24-hour cycling race . As part of the cycling days there was a mountain time trial and on June 7th the 16th Everyman Cycle Marathon took place. Organizer and fitness studio boss was Dieter Gruber. In addition to cycling, there was a Nordic walking competition and a mountain run . The second main organizer was Richard Gressl. “There is the possibility of doing two different family routes. There is also a mountain bike tour and a route for racing bikes ”, says the second main organizer, Richard Gressl. The 24-hour cycle race took place on August 15 and 16, 2009.

In May 2009, twelve members trained the volunteer fire Fohnsdorf in Fahrtechnikzentrum Fohnsdorf to deal with situations such as pouring rain , snow or icing of roads deal to. According to public spokesman Thomas Zeiler, a whole day was devoted to theory in addition to practice.

On May 28th, 2009 the then mayor Johann Straner invited to a citizens' meeting - the topic was the financial situation of the community - the interest was not particularly great as some places remained vacant. Some comments were heard, but no discussion took place, probably because many figures could have caused confusion. The then mayor Johann Straner put the debt level on December 31, 2009 at 22.6 million euros - in the party newspaper of the KPÖ a figure of 60 million had been found. KPÖ councilor Elfriede Wieser said this amount would have resulted from outstanding loans , leasing , cash credit and thermal bath liabilities - figures from the current accounts . The conclusion: "Fohnsdorf used to be 'schiach', today it is nice because of the many investments and tomorrow the debts will be paid off." Pulling dirt ". Tax advisor Hannes Zehenthofer said: “It doesn't matter how many debts we have. What matters is what was done with the money. "

The Alpe carpentry joinery of Johann Allmer based in Fohnsdorf was called "in June 2009 Recommended Meisterbetrieb excellent". As a better-with-wood carpentry, there must be at least five best ratings from customers. There were congratulations from master carpenter Josef König, chairman of “Besser mit Holz”, and guild master Oskar Beer. The then Minister of Social Affairs Rudolf Hundstorfer visited the Fohnsdorf training center in June 2009 .

2010s

On January 13, 2011, the then mayor Johann Straner ( SPÖ ) was replaced by the government commissioner Friedrich Zach, who thus took over the mayor's business. The community declared itself insolvent. The municipal council was dissolved by resolution of the Styrian state government in December 2010. The reason for this is a financial scandal uncovered by the audit office after an audit and several failed major projects, especially the thermal baths. Against the will of the SPÖ chairman, Johann Straner entered the municipal council election on September 25, 2011 with his own list, "HANS", which he won and was re-elected mayor. He withdrew from the management of the thermal baths.

In the community newspaper in September 2016, the mayor, Gernot Lobnig, in his introductory letter expressed that "Fohnsdorf should be to the city" and "Bad Fohnsdorf" could mean.

In the municipal council meeting in March 2017, the ÖVP under Vice Mayor Volkart Kienzl spoke out in favor of an audit of the Murtaler Sozialhilfeverband by the audit office , which the SPÖ did not agree with. As a compromise, the country's supervisory authority was called on to act. The Vice Mayor spoke of "lack of transparency". He said that the costs of the social welfare association had risen by eight percent from 2016 to 2017 and that 15 percent were forecast for 2018. That would result in a total volume of 87 million euros with 70,000 inhabitants. Finance officer Brigitte Wolfger said that the Court of Auditors was “not the right body”. ÖVP, FPÖ and KPÖ voted for, the SPÖ and the citizen list Team Kneissl against the involvement of the Federal Audit Office.

On June 23 and 24, 2017, the fourth " Open Air Thermen " took place in the Fohnsdorf thermal baths . The organizers bet on hits and oldies . Guests were Hannah , The Sweet and Smokie .

On August 18, 2017, the groundbreaking ceremony for the construction of a new armory for the Fohnsdorf volunteer fire brigade took place under fire brigade commander Ing.Markus Nussbaummüller. The first discussions regarding the construction took place in 2013 and a plan was submitted in 2014 and approval was granted in August 2017. The site should cover an area of ​​1000 square meters and include a changing area, five garages, a washing bay and storage areas. Most of the costs are borne by the State of Styria and the municipality of Fohnsdorf. The construction period is set at one and a half years.

On August 31, 2017, there was an exhibition in the refugee accommodation called "Haus Murtal" in Judenburg , in which asylum seekers from Fohnsdorf took part and exhibited paintings and drawings that were created in a creative workshop. In September 2017, the aircraft interior specialist Antemo moved from Fohnsdorf to Sankt Peter ob Judenburg and invested 2.2 million euros in it. The Rote-Nasen-Lauf (Rote Nasen-Lauf) of the Rote Nasen Clowndoctors will take place in Fohnsdorf on September 16, 2017 - for the first time Fohnsdorf will take part in this charity event .

According to an article in the Kleine Zeitung of April 17, 2018, Max Lercher , Federal Managing Director of the Social Democratic Party of Austria , saw "Problems will arise at the training center in Fohnsdorf." 1500 people are trained there every year, 165 are employed.
