history

Bojenstein and Baienstein are mentioned in 1037, Pahin in 1185 . This castle is believed to have stood near today's church and the St. Nikola hospital.

Beatrix, wife of Walchun von Machland zu Chlamm, founded a Hospitium Pahin in 1141 for the reception and accommodation of travelers and passers-by and built a church for it. In 1314, Pain was awarded to Heinrich I von Volkenstorf by Duke Albrecht . In the same year Duke Frederick the Fair pledged the castles Pain, Werfenstein and Haustein to the Albero von Volkenstorf. The Holzheim Palace near Linz (the so-called Painherrnhof) owned a line of the Lords of Pain .
