history

A process of amalgamation of the municipalities began in 1968 and was completed on January 1, 1972. The former independent communities Bösendürnbach, Burgfrieden, Ebersbrunn, Hohenwarth, Mühlbach, Olbersdorf, Ronthal and Zemling were combined to form the large community Hohenwarth-Mühlbach am Manhartsberg.

In 1975 a memorial was set up in memory of Joseph Misson on the 100th anniversary of the death of the dialect poet and priest. In 2002 the memorial was redesigned into a museum. In 2003 the formerly baroque palace garden and the English landscape park of the Mühlbach Palace were opened to the public.

With the ordinance of January 1, 2019, street names were introduced for better orientation and accordingly new house numbering. Around 160 street names were worked out together with the residents. Before that, the houses that were newly built, regardless of where they were, were numbered consecutively, and a situation arose that overwhelmed even locals.
