history

The church of Kogl, consecrated to St. Oswald.

At the end of the 16th century, extensive clearing was carried out in the domain of Lockenhaus , with the landlord Franz II. Nádasdy (1555–1604) mainly using subjects from Pilgersdorf , Bubendorf , German Gerisdorf and Salmannsdorf for the Robot (compulsory labor for the landlord) brought. However, the cultivation of the areas in Kogl was more than cumbersome, because they were four to eight kilometers away from the above-mentioned towns. Therefore, the landlord decided to create a settlement in this very remote clearing area in the Urbar of Lockenhaus Castle in 1597 as "Kukli" in Vas County is mentioned. The following four farms are named, each of which had a field: Czan Florian with Pehm Stefell, Knor Stefell, Hodbogner Hansli and Arthofer Bendli. Similar clearing islands were created in Lebenbrunn and Steinbach . The land register also shows that the villages of Kogl, Lebenbrunn and Steinbach were also looked after by the Pilgersdorfergericht (community council). The place name commonly used today is first documented as "Kogli" for the year 1596, when the various landlords of this area made a major inspection of the border (Franz Nadasdy, Christoph von Königsberg, Franz Batthyany, Adolf Puchheim, Christoph Erdödy and Thomas Szechy). Around 1660, the detachment from Pilgersdorf took place, in 1789 Kogl also initially became a local chaplaincy and a little later even its own parish, which was also responsible for Lebenbrunn and the Catholic residents of the predominantly Protestant village of Redlschlag . The separation of the church from the pilgrim village was also connected with the school separation . The old school was built in 1875, the new school building was built in 1967. The Theresian Urbar from 1767 shows that the poor 26 Kogler farms, despite the stony soils, were obliged to provide the following services and fees to the manor: 408 days of manual robots or 204 days of pulling robots with two cattle for the manor, 17 guilders as Compensation for the Neuntl (ninth part of the field crops), 26 guilders house interest, 25 pounds of 0.56 kg yarn, 34 chickens, 162 eggs, 4¼ fathoms (approx. 15 m³) firewood.

As a community, Kogl chose peasant symbols for its seals in accordance with its economic structure: scythe, rake, plow, grain sheaf and goose. The parcel protocol of the municipality of Kogl (Hungarian Kupfalva), Crown Land Hungary, Komitat Vas (Eisenburg) with seat in Szombathely , military district Ödenburg (= Sopron ; existed only in the years 1850-1860), tax office Güns (= Kőszeg ) from the year 1857 counts a total of 36 houses. Large parts of the village were destroyed in a major fire in 1863.

The grocery store was run by the Jewish Kopfstein family, who were then deported and murdered, until the Nazi era. In 1851 Salomon Kopfstein from Lackenbach , who came from an Esterházy protective Jewish family, opened a general store in Lockenhaus , his brothers Abraham and Isak settled in Unterrabnitz and Pilgersdorf , from where the idea arose to create a livelihood for one of the sons in Kogl. There has been electric light in Kogl since 1951, telephone and local water supply since 1957. The grocery store was given up in the 1980s, the elementary school closed at the end of the 1977/78 school year because the number of students had dropped to 11. Just after the turn of the millennium, the inn was also closed. The lack of economic prospects in small-scale agriculture and a lack of jobs in the other two economic sectors in the vicinity led to massive emigration after the Second World War.

In the course of the amalgamation of municipalities in 1971, Kogl became part of the new large municipality of Pilgersdorf with the villages of Pilgersdorf, Lebenbrunn, Deutsch Gerisdorf, Salmannsdorf, Bubendorf and Steinbach.

Since the surprising death of Pastor Werner Gruber in 2008, the rectory has been empty and was initially looked after by the Pilgersdorfer pastor. In 2015 the parsonage was renovated, bears the name Komit (Kogler Mitte) and is now used as a location for celebrations (such as for the church choir or for the agapas after mass in bad weather). Since September 2015 the parishes Lockenhaus , Pilgersdorf , Kogl, Piringsdorf and Unterrabnitz , with the branches there are no less than 16 parishes, a large parish association, which is headed by the Lockenhauser pastor. The organist of the Kogl parish is Mario Weber.

In the 1990s, the streets in the village were paved and sidewalks were laid. In the 2000s, street lights were also installed for the houses in the forest near the sports field. Conflicts with the management of the large community in Pilgersdorf led to independent solutions for the sewage system and the drinking water supply (foundation of the Kogl water and sewage cooperative under chairman Alois Weber). The drainage of the roof sewage, however, was carried out by the municipality. The vacant school building was sold in 2014. The mayor promised the population in a circular to invest most of the proceeds of 75,000 euros in the town. Despite the sale, nothing would stand in the way of a possible expansion of the fire station; it would still be possible to set up the marquee, for example on Kirtag. In 2015, the entrance to the former school was rebuilt, creating parking spaces and an area for a planned extension of the fire station. Currently (as of 2020) the fire station is being rebuilt, the end of the construction work is not yet in sight.

politics

In contrast to the large community of Pilgersdorf, which is dominated by the ÖVP , the SPÖ is stronger in Kogl . In the regional elections in Burgenland in 2010, the social democrats achieved 76.2 percent in the town, and 72.4 percent in the 2012 municipal council elections. However, the SPÖ's share of the vote subsequently declined: in the National Council elections in 2013 it was only 50 percent, in the state elections in 2015 it was 48.7 percent. There were also significant losses in the 2017 municipal council elections, where the SPÖ only won 54.6 percent of the vote and thus lost around 18 percent. Mayoral candidate Ewald Bürger from the ÖVP won 52.2 percent in the direct mayor election. In the 2017 National Council elections, the SPÖ won 52.9% of the vote, but then only achieved 46.8% in 2019. In the state elections of 2020, the SPÖ then won strongly, as in the entire state, and received 72%.

Population and economy

In 1883 there were 36 houses with 224 souls in Kogl. In 1925 there were 41 houses in the village, but only 188 inhabitants. In 1975 there were 161 residents in the 56 houses. As of November 28, 2019, only 108 main residences and 39 secondary residences were counted. As in the entire larger municipality, the population is falling sharply, due to a negative birth and migration balance. In the last 130 years, the village has lost more than half of its inhabitants. In the second half of the 19th century and in the interwar period, many Koglers emigrated to America or found a new home in large cities such as Vienna.

Since the 1960s, numerous people from Kogler have been commuters, and their job as a bricklayer, crane operator, carpenter, truck driver or unskilled worker has taken them all over Austria. There are no jobs in the village itself, and only a few in the immediate vicinity, so that the working population is more or less forced to commute every day. Roads lead via the neighboring village of Redlschlag (highest point in Burgenland and the location of the closest inn) and Bernstein towards Oberwart in southern Burgenland , in the other direction via Lebenbrunn and Steinbach to Kirchschlag in the Bucklige Welt in Lower Austria (14 kilometers away), one of them has an important function as a central location (e.g. nearest post office). Another connection, the Kogler Landesstraße L 346, leads to the pilgrim village about five kilometers away , the seat of the municipal administration, the location of the nearest grocery store and the kindergarten and elementary school for all seven localities of the large community. Three times a week two bakers come to town with their delivery vans and allow them to go shopping at certain points. Once a week, a general practitioner visits the sick and bedridden people in the area. Occasionally, mostly on Saturdays, potato sellers or sellers with certain foods drive through the village and sell them. Most of the time the population is not informed about this and the sellers shout out loud, for example “Krumpan hom ma do”, so that the population is aware of it.

The proportion of retirees is very high, many houses are empty or are only used as second homes during vacation periods or on weekends (November 28, 2019: 108 main residences, 39 secondary residences). The village now has neither an inn nor a grocery store, and the school was closed in 1978. The prices for building plots are currently (2016) at 12-15 euros per square meter. Most of the landowners have now leased their fields and meadows, especially since many Koglers have given up part-time farming since the 1990s. Because no land consolidation was carried out, the Gewannflur still dominates . The preservation of the landscape - an interplay of forest, meadows and fields (especially wheat , barley , oats , rye , spelled , rape and maize ) - is still guaranteed for the time being. Even chickens and pigs, previously kept by every family, have become rare, ducks and geese have completely disappeared. The hunting area is leased by local hunters. In the last few years, the number of small game - hares and pheasants - that have almost disappeared has increased again. Small strips of forest belong to private landowners. These are used to cut down your own firewood, especially since most Kogler houses are heated with firewood. But there is also a community property, the “Urbarialwald”. In part, it is bordered by the Esterházy "Herrschaftswald" , the largest landowner in Burgenland.

Kogl also has a morgue, which is located opposite the cemetery.

There is a school bus to Oberpullendorf, Lockenhaus and Bernstein for schoolchildren and non-mobile local residents. In the respective localities there is also the possibility to change to other buses, for example to get to Oberwart. The bus stops are in the center of the village and at the Rotte Anger, there are no buses on non-teaching days. The next train station is in Grimmenstein .

In 2017 the community launched the “PlusTaxi”, which is intended to enable non-mobile residents to get to other places to do their shopping, etc. This was well received by the population, as there are some residents without a driver's license and they are then no longer dependent on the bus or carpooling with other local residents.

There are discos in Kirchschlag, Bernstein, Oberwart and Oberpullendorf. Every Saturday there is a disco bus from Pilgersdorf to Oberpullendorf and back. Most of the time, however, the young people drive themselves or order a taxi. The inns in Redlschlag are very popular due to their proximity.

Attractions

  • The large, widely visible wooden cross on the Kogler Berg on the "Platte" was completely destroyed by a lightning strike in the summer of 2014. A new cross was erected there in March 2016. There is also a bench with a table there so that the view can be enjoyed perfectly.
  • The parish church of Kogl was built as a chapel in 1752 in fulfillment of a vow after having survived a cattle epidemic and expanded from the ground up in 1817. It is dedicated to St. Oswald (church and cattle patron), the rather simple furnishings date from the 18th century. The high altar contains a picture of St. Oswald, the church patron, and to the side figures of the cattle patrons Wendelin and Patricius. In the course of renovation and restoration work, a surface with wood inlays was discovered and exposed under the simple version of the high altar , which greatly enhanced the appearance of the altar. In 2016 the Kogler church organ was renovated. In the years before that, the altar was also renovated, at a cost of € 65,000. There are three bells in the tower, which are operated electronically, previously with a cable. The pilgrimage church was mainly visited on Kirtag on the Sunday after Oswaldi (August 5th) by the farmers in the area, who prayed for a good harvest and healthy cattle. The large grocer's market, originally held on this most important day of the year, with swings, ringing games and shooting gallery with market stalls on both sides from the entrance to the exit has gradually become smaller since the early 1990s.
  • An old Trinity chapel is located 200 meters north of the village on the road to Lebenbrunn .
  • Memorial stone 400 years of Kogl at the fire station
  • View and landscape. In Kogl there is also a pond in the forest, which the locals call "Grandl".
  • Chapel towards Lebenbrunn

societies

  • In 1998 a water and sewage cooperative was founded.
  • The Association for Townscape Design , Tourism, Village Renewal and Culture in the Village - Kogl (OFDK Kogl) was founded on June 21, 1996. He dedicates himself to the maintenance of customs (e.g. Easter bonfires, carnival celebrations, Christmas parties) and organizes concerts, various courses, visits to cultural events and educational trips. Among other things, the association was responsible for the inauguration of the memorial stone in front of the fire station on the occasion of the 400th anniversary celebration in 1997 . He also financially supported the construction of the sewage treatment plant, the street lighting and the renovation of the church square. For the 20th anniversary in 2016, an extensive book was written about the village.
  • The Kogl volunteer fire brigade , which celebrated its 90th anniversary with a ceremony in 2011, is much older . In the past there was also a youth fire department, but this no longer exists due to the lack of small children. The largest operation in the recent past took place in May 2015, when heavy rains led to water ingress in several objects. Since July 2016, the Kogler fire brigade has had a new all-wheel drive auxiliary fire engine and a 500-liter water tank. The acquisition costs of 154,400 euros are shared by the state of Burgenland , the municipality of Pilgersdorf and the Kogl volunteer fire brigade. The new car was inaugurated on July 23, 2016 as part of a big celebration. The fire brigade also has an older car, a small fire engine. In 2021 the Kogl volunteer fire brigade will celebrate its 100th anniversary. The number of members of the fire brigade has steadily decreased; there are currently around 25 active members. The fire station is currently being rebuilt and a new cellar has been created. A garage for the second car is also to be built in the future. The driveway will be paved and a new retaining wall will be built. In 2020 the fire brigade will again take part in the fire brigade competitions.
  • There is also a darts club, a savings club and a beautification club in the village. Members of the darts club and the savings club meet once a week on the weekend to train or make deposits. Occasionally tournaments also take place.
  • Although Kogl has a sports field, there is no football club, as the one in Pilgersdorf is open to players from all seven localities of the community. In the past, this soccer field was used very often by Kogl's children and young people, today (2020) there are no gates and the field is uneven and is only mowed irregularly. It is only used very rarely, for example for the fire brigade's preparation for competitions. The children and young people now mostly play football on the street. When there was no sports field, meadows were used as football fields. The children built a gate with two logs and often played for hours. There are football clubs in the neighboring Pilgerdorf (2nd league center) and Redlschlag (2nd class South A). Some Kogler play for these clubs.
  • The Kogler Youth currently (as of 2020) has around 20 members; it has had a youth room since 2016. For a long time there was only one youth manager and one treasurer, the post of deputy youth manager was vacant, but was filled again in 2020. The youth also organize some festivals during the year, such as the Easter bonfire, the maypole cutting and the "Zwicklscheitaustrag" on New Year's Eve. Only when a member of the youth marries is he no longer a member and is said goodbye to the "Maschgern" at the wedding. In addition, the youth organize an excursion at least once a year. Unfortunately, the youth has been rather inactive in recent years, and due to the lack of members, it seems that it is only a matter of time.
  • There is also the local group SPÖ Kogl-Lebenbrunn, which organizes the sauté dance and morning pint at the Zapfel inn.
  • The parish council organizes the Advent wreath weaving and develops other activities in the Kogler parsonage.

regional customs

  • Part of keeping up with the customs is “carrying out Zwickl logs” on New Year's Eve : the young people of the village go from house to house, wish the residents all the best for the new year, and place a large log under the dining table that should bring good luck in the new year. You will receive a small donation for the youth cash desk and an alcoholic drink (mostly schnapps) to toast the new year. The saying that is recited is: “Dou bring ma eng a Zwickelscheidl, tweaks Wogn and Pflui aun, sideways Hia and Geins aun, builds Woaz and Troad aun, that nothing suffocates and nothing refreshes, and olls unhappiness at the gable window. "(" We'll bring you a log, hang up the wagon and plow, add chickens and geese, grow wheat and rye so that nothing withers and everything comes up, and all misfortune flies out at the gable window. ") At midnight there is one Fireworks at the fire station, where many residents of the village gather to wish each other the New Year and toast together. The custom was also upheld on New Year's Eve 2019/20, 9 young people went from house to house. Unfortunately, the number of young people taking part has fallen sharply as young adults have moved away due to a lack of professional prospects.
  • When a local resident marries, Kogler appear uninvited at the wedding party as "Maschgerer", and hold the newlyweds and their relatives, even hidden under a mask, in front of a kind of character mirror in the form of a poem: A "Maschgererbrief" is read out in which this Bridal couple is presented with their strengths and weaknesses. Then there is usually the “ bride- stealing ”, the groom then has to look for his bride and buy it back. This money then goes to the youth fund. Usually the "Maschgerer" are the youth of the village. Before the wedding ceremony in the church there is also the custom “Fierzuing”, whereby the groom cuts through a barrier and the bride and groom have to drink a glass of wine. After the wedding there is still the custom that the bride and groom have to cut a piece of wood with a saw. The last wedding in Kogl took place in June 2018. The last Maschkern took place in September 2019.
  • A custom of the Kogler youth was traditionally the "Krampus scare" on December 5th every year. The young people of the village, disguised as Krampus, went with their Santa Claus to every house where there were small children and gave the children a Krampus bag. A saying was also said. In 2011 there was the last Krampus horror in Kogl, since then the children have been absent.
  • As in other Catholic places, the “ratchet children” are on their way in Kogl on Good Friday and Holy Saturday , replacing the “bells that have flown to Rome” with their wooden ratchets . Traditionally they receive the "Ratschnaei" from every household, recently mostly sweets or a small donation. In earlier times there was also the "Ratschna breakfast". The following slogan is used to invoke the prayers and devotions: “Wir rachna, wir rachna, the English greeting that every Catholic Christian must pray. Follts nieda, follts nieda on eingare knees, and pray to Our Father and three Ave Marie . “At the moment there are only a few ratchet children, as there have been almost no more births in the village in recent years.
  • On January 6th the Magi go from house to house.
  • On Holy Saturday , a large Easter fire is traditionally lit, in which brush, shrubbery and wood waste are burned. Since 2014 the Easter bonfire has been organized by the Kogler youth.
  • In the district of Anger, a high maypole is set up every year , which is cut again at the end of May as part of a small celebration. A maypole is also set up in the village center, which is located by the fire station. The tree is usually cut back at the end of May as part of a barbecue or something similar. There hasn't been a maypole in the village for over five years.
  • Every year there is a carnival parade in the village on Mardi Gras. The boys and girls of the Kogler youth dress up and go from house to house with a "dead bear". The death bear is a boy stuffed with straw and, as custom requires, he has to dance with the woman of the house in every house. Since the death bear wears a stuffed costume, he cannot go to the bathroom all day long. Therefore, he only drinks schnapps so that he can last the whole day. The youth then usually get food and drink and a small donation for the youth fund. After the move, the youngsters go to the Servus inn in Redlschlag, where there is a carnival disco every year on Mardi Gras Saturday. Occasionally the young people also take part in the carnival parade in Redlschlag. The custom refers to the icy winters that used to exist. The dead bear should finally drive away the winter. In 2020 there were 11 young people who took part in the move.
  • Another custom in Kogl is the annual solstice fire organized by the OFDK for the solstice, which also took place in 2019. A fire tower will be built on the slab by the cross and lit as part of a celebration. Before the fire tower is lit, Holy Mass takes place on the plate.
  • The Kogler Fire Brigade Ball takes place annually. People used to celebrate at the Löwenwirt in Lebenbrunn, but since it has now been closed, the ball has been held in Redlschlag in Café Zapfel since 2013 (as of 2020). In 2019 there was no fire brigade ball, but it took place again in February 2020. The day of the fire brigade and a barbecue evening are also organized once a year.
