Culture and sights
At the site of a castle in Kleinneusiedl that was destroyed by the Turks in 1683, the largest paper factory in the Vienna Basin was founded in 1793 by the wholesaler Ignaz Theodor Pachner Edler von Eggenstorf, who came from Leonfelden in Upper Austria . The factory took three years to build and employed 350 workers; A factory canal was branched off from the Fischa to drive the paper dutchers . In the spacious company area, a few row-like houses were built for the workers and a factory park with baroque stone sculptures was created.
The architecture of the production building was largely determined by the production process: the paper dutchmen operated three water wheels as well as a rolling mill for smoothing the paper , which were set up in the lowest wing; the huge mansard roof served as a spacious drying room for the handmade paper . The company supplied paper to the kk central bank , it was the parent company of what would later become Neusiedler AG for paper manufacture, which in the 21st century became Mondi Neusiedler GmbH ( Mondi AG ).
After the death of the factory founder on March 14, 1814, the widow, Anna Maria, and the son of the deceased, Anton, continued the business. On April 2, 1837, for lack of investment capital, the factory was sold to the wholesaler Georg Borckenstein, who converted the company into a joint stock company (kk priv. Joint stock company of the Kleinneusiedl paper factory) . The Kleinneusiedler factory was now the most comprehensive machine paper factory in all of Europe .
The factory underwent a decisive change in production technology under the new management, when two steam-powered paper machines from the Englishman Bryan Donkin were purchased in 1837 and a third was added in 1841. These aggregates were able to replace the laborious manual scooping with mechanical scooping and to produce "endless paper webs". The Vienna Technical Museum is showing one of these steam engines. - In addition to the use of technical innovations, the production of hand-made paper continued until 1898.
In the following decades a number of paper mills in the “humid plain” (Vienna basin south of the Danube) were acquired. With the introduction of cellulose and wood pulp as the basic material for paper production, Kleinneusiedler AG was gradually transformed into a large corporation that included all possible production stages. Paper production was stopped at the beginning of the 1930s, and the building was acquired by the Polsterer company in 1938. The buildings were used for a cotton mill after 1945.
Today you can see parts of the late baroque paper mill behind the church square. Next to the works canal is the three-storey factory building from 1795 with the mighty mansard roof; diagonally opposite the overgrown former factory park with some stone sculptures (columns with vase attachments, obelisk-like pillars, dilapidated grotto) and in the rear part of the site a row of ground-level workers' houses. There are stone sculptures (lions and sphinxes) on the bridge over the Fischa. In 1985 Paulus Manker's film “Schmutz” was shot here.
In addition, several Longobard graves were found in the fields between Kleinneusiedl and Fischamend .
