Hafning bei Trofaiach is a former municipality in the Leoben district , Styria . The former community has been merged with Trofaiach since 2013 .

history

The sustainable settlement of the former municipality began in the Middle Ages. Place and area names are reminiscent of the Slavic settlement in the early Middle Ages and the Bavarian settlement in the following centuries. A mixed Bavarian-Slavic population up to the end of the 12th century can be assumed to be certain for the Trofaiach Basin. This is also indicated by many geographical names. After that, the Slavic population disappeared through assimilation by the German-speaking majority population. Examples of place names of Slavic origin are:

  • Krumpen of kronpa (the little valley '),
  • Rötz , medieval Recz von rečica ('brooklet'),
  • Treffning from trebiti ('clearing'),
  • Trattning from trata ('cattle pasture, corridor'),
  • Laintal , medieval Lonktal of Ionka (Meadow Aue ').

For centuries, the Hafning area corresponded to that of a typical Upper Styrian rural community with rural structures and shared the varied fortunes of the rest of Styria . Due to the proximity to the centers of the Upper Styrian iron industry, there was mostly a good sales situation for agricultural products. On the other hand, many ironworkers and miners lived in the villages and ditches in the Hafning area. Ore mining was carried out in the Hafning area at an early stage. Evidence is primarily a former cinnabar and mercury mining in the rear Krumpengraben, namely in the field of Zölzalpe and the Krumpensee , and an iron ore mining in Rötzgraben near the homestead today Höller .

The community Hafning, in today's sense, came into being after 1848 after the abolition of the manor and the resulting reorganization of the administrative units. It was created by combining the five cadastral communities of Hafning, Krumpen, Rötz, Treffning and Laintal, which originally belonged to the Freienstein district at the time .

From an ecclesiastical point of view, the Hafning area has always belonged to the Trofaiach parish . Therefore, the existing cemetery in Trofaiach is the burial place responsible for the Hafningers. The police station responsible for Hafning and the post office are also located in Trofaiach. The area of ​​the Laintal was looked after by the police from Sankt Peter-Freienstein until it was closed at the end of May 2014 . Some houses in the northernmost area of ​​Hafning belong to the postal district of 8794  Vordernberg .

On April 1, 1939, large areas belonging to the Hafning community were annexed to the Trofaiach community. It was about the Glögglhof and the meadows and fields belonging to the Glögglhof, which reached as far as the area of ​​today's Reitingstrasse . The Gladensiedlung for the workers and employees of the Donawitz iron and steel works (at that time Hermann-Göring-Werke ) was built on this site. Until 1945 the whole community of Hafning von Trofaiach was provisionally administered. However, this was reversed soon after the Second World War. In the years around 1960, the area of ​​the tree school path on the local border at Trofaiach was incorporated.

In the past fifty years, numerous single-family houses had been built in Hafning. This happened mainly in Sonndorf , in the front Rötzgraben and in the Laintal , while fewer and fewer people live in the rear parts of the trenches.

On June 1, 1951, the municipality of Hafning was renamed Hafning bei Trofaiach .

At the beginning of 2012, on the occasion of the municipal structural reform in Styria 2010-2015 , talks began between the neighboring municipalities of Gai , Hafning, Trofaiach and Vordernberg , with the aim of merging these four municipalities. A referendum was held on September 30, 2012 on the outcome of these negotiations. The residents of Hafning voted for the merger. In Hafning, the result was just under for the merger with 52.7% yes-votes and 56.9% participation. On January 1, 2013, the new town with the previous name Trofaiach was created, with around 11,300 inhabitants.

Former coat of arms

AUT Hafning near Trofaiach COA.jpg

The coat of arms shows a typical coal wagon in the upper field. With such high-sided wagons pulled by horses or oxen, the charcoal produced in the forests of Hafning but also in other Upper Styrian forests was carried to the nearby Vordernberg , where it was used in the wheelworks for the production of pig iron . At the beginning of the 20th century, this type of pig iron production was replaced by the coke oven.

The municipal coat of arms was awarded with effect from September 1, 1982. When the municipality was dissolved, it became invalid.

Culture and sights

Hafninger Gasslfest - At the beginning of June, the Hafning tradesmen organize the “Gasslfest”, in which the entire population of Hafning and the surrounding communities take part.
