history

The earliest written document is from around 1130 and reads "Camera". The name goes back to Old High German kamara and means 'small stone house' (possibly as the administrative seat).

The castle ruins of Kammerstein (lower chambers) and Ehrenfels (upper chambers), which were owned by aristocrats with far-reaching connections (up to the son-in-law of Emperor Maximilian I , Siegmund von Dietrichstein ), prove that the rule of chambers in the Middle Ages was partly of supraregional importance would have.

On the Reiterer Kogel - proven by soil examinations - there was probably a fortification, the original castle of the Massenbergs (?). The site name Massenberg (Maser) south of Glarsdorf also indicates this gender.

The local community as an autonomous body was established in 1850. After the annexation of Austria in 1938, the community was part of the Reichsgau Styria, from 1945 to 1955 it was part of the British zone of occupation in Austria. In 2010 the survey on the market town was carried out.
