geography

Mönichsreith is located about 35 kilometers east of Salzburg , 10 kilometers west of Bad Ischl , right on the border between Salzburg and Upper Austria. The place is 3½ kilometers east of St. Wolfgang , directly northeast of Strobl , left in Wolfgangtal . The place is directly on the border of Upper Austria – Land Salzburg, here the Ischler Ache (Ischl) . To Wolfgangsee , Mönichsreith is behind the Bürglstein  ( 745  m above sea level ). To the north rises the Lugberg  ( 916  m above sea level ) of the Schafberg group , the mountain on the Schwarzensee .

The location extends for almost 1½ kilometers on the Riedel between the Schwarzenbach (Moosbach) - the outflow of the Schwarzensee - and the Grabner Bach . It mainly comprises a group of houses on St. Wolfganger Straße  ( L546 ) at the foot of the mountain at around 560  m above sea level. A. , and one on the Ischler Ache, about the same height. All in all, that's around 30 addresses with 100 residents.

The L546 (A) / L116 from Strobl to St. Wolfgang passes the town to the west.

history

The place name is documented for the first time in 1416 as Münchsreit . The clearing name -reit / reut refers to the possessions of the Benedictine monks of Mondsee . At this time, the Wolfgang valley is being reclaimed. It has been divided between the now Upper Austrian, at that time Bavarian, possessions of Mondsee, and those of the archbishopric St. Peter zu Salzburg's monastery (also Benedictine) since the donations by Duke Odilo in the middle of the 8th century.

In the 1950s there were only nine farms here, no more than at the end of the 18th century, and it was only with the development of modern tourism in the Salzkammergut that the population rose.
