history

The Geschrittenstein Strasse in its current form has only existed since 1972 and emerged from numerous former state roads.

Origins

Since Burgenland belonged to Hungary until 1921 , all roads were oriented towards the Hungarian cities of Körmend and Szombathely. The road from Burgau via Güssing to Körmend was classified as a Hungarian state road in 1854. In 1926 the road network in Burgenland was reorganized and adapted to the changed state borders. The following state roads have been on today's route since July 1, 1926:

• The stretch between Güssing and Körmend was called Güssinger Straße .
• The Pinkatalstraße branched off in Strem and led via Moschendorf and Edlitz to Kohfidisch.
• The Rechnitzer Straße between Rechnitz and Schachendorf had also been part of the network of regional roads in Burgenland since July 1, 1926.

The Burger Straße or Deutsch-Schützener Straße in between was declared a district road by an ordinance of the Burgenland state government of August 20, 1928.

Previous routes and names

The Kirchschlager road led as a national highway of Lockenhaus over the Geschriebenstein to Schachendorf since April 1, 1948th Since 1972, Kirchschlager Strasse has ended in Rattersdorf, which is why the southern section of Kirchschlager Strasse was renamed Geschrittenstein Strasse ( B 56 ) in 1972.

The Geschrittenstein Strasse between Schachendorf and Güssing has only been part of the network of federal roads in Austria since January 1, 1972 . It replaced the state and district roads mentioned above.
