history

Ancient, Middle Ages and Modern Times

Even in antiquity, there was evidence of a weak settlement in Lamprechtshausen in the village of Wildmann, and in Oberarnsdorf the discovery of a bronze sword in the hamlet of Hansled shows that there was an even earlier settlement.

Since 520, a permanent settlement can be demonstrated with the population of the area by the Bavarians . Lamprechtshausen was first mentioned in a document in 768, when a Herefried von Lambrechtshausen donated goods to the Bavarian monastery in Otting .

Arnsdorf with its “Maria im Mösl” church has been a place of pilgrimage for almost 800 years, making it one of the oldest Marian pilgrimage sites in Austria. From 1538 to 1540 the parish church of Lamprechtshausen was rebuilt with the exception of the tower, which dates from around 1100. The influx to the pilgrimage church in Arnsdorf was so great in the 17th century that a parsonage was built in Oberarnsdorf in 1646, to which the pastor of Lamprechtshausen moved.

In Stockham in 1714, typhus disease claimed a total of 16 deaths. During this plague , Stockham was surrounded by soldiers. In 1968, the then mayor Sepp Aigner erected a plague material to commemorate the victims .

The old schoolhouse in Arnsdorf was built in 1771 and it is currently the oldest schoolhouse in Austria that still teaches. The Salzburg cathedral music director Michael Haydn composed his first four-part songs in the parsonage of Arnsdorf in 1792.

19th century

Until 1805 Lamprechtshausen was part of the Archdiocese of Salzburg and with it also moved from the Electorate of Bavaria and finally in 1816 to the Austrian Empire. In 1820 the 300th anniversary of the pilgrimage church in Arnsdorf took place, at which around 20,000 pilgrims were counted.

The Lamprechtshausen volunteer fire brigade was founded in 1882, and that of Arnsdorf in 1897.

Lamprechtshausen has been connected to the railway line to Salzburg since 1896 when the first section to Oberndorf was opened.

20th century until today

At the beginning of the 20th century the parish church in Lamprechtshausen was rebuilt; the new nave was built in 1905 and the rectory in 1929.

In 1934, the social democratic and communist parties were banned and, as part of the Nazi attempted coup in Austria, the so-called July coup, a coup by the NSDAP in Lamprechtshausen (see references). The place was under provisional administration.

→ Lamprechtshausen Nazi putsch

In July 1938, the Lamprechtshausner Weihespiel by the National Socialist Karl Springenschmid was performed.

A typhus epidemic in Lamprechtshausen in 1945 claimed numerous lives.

From the 1960s onwards, there was constant improvement in the local infrastructure. In 1959 and 1960, a new elementary school with a gym was built, which was already badly damaged by a storm in 1960. The entire community was badly affected by the storm. From 1967 to 1969 the construction of the secondary school took place, which was expanded by six classrooms only five years later.
On July 1, 1967, part of the municipality around Zehmemoos was spun off and assigned to the newly created municipality of Bürmoos .

In 1974 the first farmer's Christmas took place in Arnsdorf. The new municipal office with club facilities was built from 1975 to 1976, and in 1977 the first construction phase of the local sewer system began. In 1977 the first “Gruber-Mohr Memorial Walk Arnsdorf – Oberndorf” took place. In 1977/1978 the existing fire brigade equipment facility was expanded and reconstructed as well as the Flachgau-Nord operations center for the volunteer fire brigade and the Red Cross. In 1979 the post office was set up on the ground floor of the municipal office.

In 1980 the Lamprechtshausen, Arnsdorf, Asten and Riedlkam dairies merged to form a joint dairy cooperative. In 1981/1982 a new fire department was built in Arnsdorf.
On July 29, 1985, a hurricane-like storm swept over the northern parts of the municipality. In the areas of Maxdorf, Ausserfürth, Innerfürth, Wildmann and Stockham, thousands of solid cubic meters of storm wood fell and some buildings were severely damaged. The Andrä chapel, inaugurated the day before, was only slightly damaged.
In 1986, the purification association's sewage treatment plant was handed over to its destination. The kindergarten with four groups was established in 1986 and 1987. In 1989 the newly built woodchip district heating plant went into operation and has been supplying public buildings and private houses with district heating ever since.

In 1991 Lamprechtshausen was declared a model community. In 1993 the stop on demand was opened on the Salzburg – Lamprechtshausen railway in Arnsdorf-Stierlingwald.
When test drilling for natural gas and crude oil was carried out in Lamprechtshausen in 1994, thermal water with a temperature of 83 ° C was found instead. However, the discharge turned out to be too small to be used for thermal operation.
In 1995 and 1996, the range of sports facilities was enlarged through purchase. In 1997 street naming was introduced with a new assignment of house numbers; Until then, the house addresses were not assigned systematically according to the location, but according to the construction sequence. In 1998 a hard-won location decision followed and in 1999 the groundbreaking ceremony for a new multi-purpose building. In 1999, the municipality won the nationwide competition “100 km of hedge by the year 2000” and received the award “Goldene Rosehutte”.

In 2001, the consolidation was completed in the village of Hausmoning. In the same year the multi-purpose building was inaugurated in Lamprechtshausen, which houses various social and cultural groups, but also houses shops and apartments. In 2002 the renovation of the secondary school was completed.

coat of arms

In 1965 the municipality of Lamprechtshausen was awarded a coat of arms by the Salzburg state government.

"In shields split by red and blue, two silver wings facing each other and between them a silver house brand, consisting of a fishhook within a protruding rafter, the tip of which ends in a paw cross."

Lamprechtshausen was already mentioned in the " Breves Notitiae " in 768 on the occasion of the gift of Herefrid von Lamprechtshausen to the cell of Otting . The parish was incorporated into the Michaelbeuern Benedictine Abbey in 1241 , which has provided vicars almost continuously since then. The silver wings to Michaelbeuern and the house brand of Laurenz Lamprechtshausen from 1417 are supposed to create a symbolic relationship to the history of the place.
