history

Place name

Until around 1890, the names Ober Tullnerbach and Hinter Tullnerbach were used for the rear part around today's Wundererplatz . The front part between Erlschachen and Brettwieserstraße by the former monastery is known as Unter Tullnerbach and later as Vorder Tullnerbach .

The name Irenental appears in the Franzisco-Josephinische Landesaufnahme recorded in 1872 at the entrance to the valley, although the origin is unclear. The name does not appear for the wider valley until 1880.

Early history and the Middle Ages

Sancta Maria in Paradyso

In the Tirlitzgrube at Heimbuchsteg near Troppberg a barrow field from the Roman Limes period was found. The 16 burial mounds (15 in ensemble, one apart) are under monument protection .

The Franciscan monastery of Sancta Maria in Paradyso was built on Riederberg around 1460 . The single-nave late Gothic church was dedicated to the Mother of God and St.  Laurence and was rebuilt after a fire in 1509. On September 26, 1529, the monastery and church were destroyed by the Turks , killing 18 monastery friars. Neither has been rebuilt. The remains of the ruins are also listed.

Modern times

In the house is a 1903 erected memorial stone.

Efforts to build a church have been made since around 1860. The first work on this began in April 1900 with the inauguration of the building site on the southern slope of the Riedanleitenberg. The foundation stone was laid on July 16, 1900, on the occasion of the 70th birthday of Emperor Franz Joseph (according to the official reason) . The church was built in a very short time in the secessionist style with stones from the surrounding quarries and the tower cross was consecrated on November 4, 1900. On June 16, 1901, it was completed and furnished and the Benediction as St. Antonius Church (probably in honor of the founder Anton Glaser) took place. The former branch church was looked after by the Purkersdorf parish. Ten years after the laying of the foundation stone, the consecration of the church took place on November 20, 1910 as Maria Schnee ( patronage August 5) by the auxiliary bishop Gottfried Marschall on the occasion of the 80th birthday of Emperor Franz Joseph.

From 1971 to 1975 (on the occasion of the 75th anniversary) the interior of the church was fundamentally redesigned. Among other things, the communion grille was removed and reworked into gate gates at the entrance.
