Bad Mitterndorf

Bad Mitterndorf (since July 1, 1972; until 1951 Mitterndorf , 1952–1972 Mitterndorf in the Styrian Salzkammergut ) is a market town with 4920 inhabitants (as of January 1, 2020) in the Styrian Salzkammergut in Austria . As part of the municipal structural reform in Styria , it was merged with the two municipalities of Pichl-Kainisch and Tauplitz in 2015 . Since then, the municipality has encompassed the entire Hinterberger Valley .

geography

Bad Mitterndorf with the Grimming from the Sonnenalm

Bad Mitterndorf comprises the Hinterberger Tal in the Styrian Salzkammergut in the Liezen district and the Liezen judicial district . The dominating mountain is the Grimming (2351 m) to the south , which, together with the Kammspitz (2139 m), defines the panorama of the holiday resort. The former largest natural ski jump in the world, the Kulm, is located on the eastern border of the municipality . The Tauplitzalm skiing and hiking area can be reached via a toll road via Bad Mitterndorf .

Coming from the north-west, the Salzabach flows through the center of Bad Mitterndorf. Since 1949, the creek has been dammed on the southeastern municipal boundary to form the 5.5 km long Salza reservoir .

The Heilbrunn thermal springs , which were already known to the Romans , are located 2.5 km south of the center of Bad Mitterndorfer, at the confluence of the Krunglbach and the Salzabach . It is acratic calcium-magnesium-sulfate- hydrogen carbonate water with a temperature of 25–28 ° C with a proportion of source gases.

Incorporations

As part of the structural reform of the Styrian community , the community of Bad Mitterndorf was merged with the other two communities in the Hinterberger Valley, Tauplitz and Pichl-Kainisch , on January 1st, 2015 . The de jure newly created municipality continues the name of the market municipality Bad Mitterndorf. The basis for this was the Styrian Municipal Structural Reform Act - StGsrG. A complaint brought by the communities of Pichl-Kainisch and Tauplitz against the amalgamation to the Constitutional Court was unsuccessful.

history

Prehistory, antiquity, the Middle Ages

In Lieglloch, a cave in Krahsteinstock above Tauplitz, findings have been made which suggest that "this cavity in the last glacial period and during the warmer fluctuation phase of the ice age Wuerm served the Urjägern as a hunting station." The findings include hearths of burnt cave bear bone , Stone blades, drill-shaped canine teeth of cave bears, etc. a. m.

There are individual finds from the Bronze Age in the municipality of Bad Mitterndorf, on the traffic route between Hallstatt and the Ennstal . A bronze sword was found at the sawmill in Grubegg . A rag ax was found in Mühlreith, others in Kainisch and near Ödensee .

The Romans knew the Heilbrunn thermal spring. The discovery of the Roman stone testifies to this. It shows three naked women side by side. Each holds a shell in front of her abdomen with both hands. A man wearing a toga stands by. He holds his right hand over a sacrificial altar. A Roman coin was also found at the source ( Maxentius , 306–312).

In the early Middle Ages, Slavic settlement activity also reached the Hinterberger Valley. Place names have been preserved from these, e.g. B. Tauplitz, Rödschitz and Kumitz. The most important archaeological evidence of Slavic settlement activity in the municipality of Bad Mitterndorf is the cemetery in Krungl, which was excavated at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries and was used from the 8th to the 10th century. In several hundred graves, gifts such as iron knives and plenty of (often gilded) bronze jewelry were found. Also in the 8th century an increased immigration of Bavarian settlers began . This was interrupted in the 10th century by the fighting against the Magyars for about 50 years and then continued until the middle of the 13th century.

With the rest of Styria, today's municipality of Bad Mitterndorf finally came under the rule of the margraves from the Traungau family (1056). Ecclesiastically, the eastern part of the Hinterberger Valley belonged to the Archdiocese of Salzburg , the western part to the Diocese of Passau , the border ran roughly the same as the former municipality border between Bad Mitterndorf and Pichl-Kainisch.

In 1147 was Mitterndorf (ahd. As "Mittelindorf" agent in , located in the middle ') first mentioned specifically in the document by which the Styrian Margrave Ottokar III. made various donations to the Rein monastery , including two salt pans on Altausseer Salzberg and beneficia duo in Mittelindorf - two estates ( Huben ) in Mitterndorf.

From the time of Duke Albrecht I , a land register has been preserved, which was created between 1280 and 1295 and contains other place names from today's municipality. In addition to Mitterdorf there are u. a .: Hinterperch, Cammisch (Kainisch), Chrungil, Newnhofen, Oberstorf, Puhel (Pichl), Retschitz (Rödschitz) and Zauch (en).

In the late Middle Ages, Emperor Friedrich III. Temporarily privately owned in Hinterberg.

Middle Ages - ecclesiastical

For a long time the area belonged to the parish Grauscharn ( Pürgg ). Around 1335 the dukes Albrecht I and Otto set up a vicariate parish in Mitterndorf. This belonged to the Hinterberg dominion, which was sovereign and comprised twelve villages.

In the new parish (the area of today's Tauplitz parish remained near Pürgg) a church was also built, today's parish church Bad Mitterndorf . Exact dates are not known. The lower tower floors, organ gallery and walls of the nave belong to the 14th century. The nave was raised in the 15th century and given a ribbed vault. The construction of the choir in its current form (also with a beautiful ribbed vault) took place around the year 1500. The church is consecrated to Saint Margaret .

Until the end of the Middle Ages, Mitterndorf and the mother parish of Pürgg were still under the influence of the Archdiocese of Salzburg. From 1420 they belonged to the canon monastery in Wiener Neustadt. 1491 awarded Emperor Friedrich III. the parish of Pürgg with Mitterndorf the Austrian Order of St. George . The order had its seat in Millstatt , from there the parish was administered and was no longer under Salzburg.

Reformation and Counter Reformation

The beginning of the modern era was marked by the Reformation and Counter-Reformation . As in the rest of Styria, Protestantism was also widespread in Hinterberg. In addition to the Catholic clergy, there were evangelical preachers, and efforts to bring the inhabitants back to the Catholic faith met with resistance and were often only superficially successful. Lutheran scriptures were common and guarded.

In 1590 the Mitterndorfer introduced a preacher brought from Aussee to serve in their church alongside the Catholic priest. Apparently this proved to be tolerant of the new faith. When he died, however, the residents refused to appoint a new pastor and violently supported their preacher. The conflict dragged on. In 1597 a commission was supposed to reinstate a Catholic priest, which again led to violent actions. As a result, 16 people from Mitterndorf were admitted to the Graz Schloßberg . Other ringleaders had fled over the mountains to Upper Austria . In 1599 another commission was active in the Ausseerland . In his report on this, Abbot Johann von Admont even suggested that Aussee and Mitterndorf should be completely torn down.

In 1617 Ferdinand II felt compelled to order the "non-Catholics in Hinterberg" to be converted to the Catholic religion.

Further church history of modern times

In the 18th century, under the reign of Joseph II , two further parishes were founded in Hinterberg. The Tauplitz parish was separated from the Pürgg parish. The parish of Maria Kumitz emerged from the parts of the parish Aussee in Hinterberg and the village of Obersdorf.

Now (2017) the parishes Tauplitz, Bad Mitterndorf and Maria Kumitz form the parish association Hinterberg.

Parish Mitterndorf

In 1577 the parish came from the Order of St. George into the hands of the Jesuits . The order exercised its ecclesiastical rights from Graz. Since 1610, the order had also owned the rulership of Hinterberg, which went back to the Salinenamt in Aussee after the order was abolished in 1773. The parish was then subordinated to the Seckau General Vicariate. From 1786 to 1804 the entire Ausseerland belonged to the short-lived diocese of Leoben , then finally to the diocese of Seckau. Until 1848 a few houses in Mitterndorf and one in Krungl belonged to the parish .

In 1669 lightning struck the church tower. The sacristan's son was killed and the tower burned down. In 1775 Maria Theresia founded a chaplaincy in Mitterndorf.

The churchyard, whose walling gives the elevated church the character of a fortified church, was in use until 1872.

The high altar of the parish church with the figures of the holy bishops Virgil and Rupert , the Marien Altar , Barbara Altar and Anne Altar, as well as the pulpit are works of the sculptor Johann Fortschegger , who works in Mitterndorf . The Barbara altar shows a painting by Kremser Schmidt . These works date from 1771 to 1802.

The parish Maria Kumitz was founded in Mitterndorf in the 18th century.

Parish Maria Kumitz

The author of the construction of today's parish church Maria Kumitz on the Kumitzberge, a striking limestone hill in the middle of the valley, was the Mitterndorfer pastor Balthasar Marinz, who had been pursuing the plan for a calvary since taking office. In 1717, with the proceeds of a collection, pictures of the Stations of the Cross were erected on the mountain and a small brick chapel was built into which a late Gothic Pietà was transferred from the Mitterndorf parish church. This Pietà is now on the Kumitz high altar.

In the further course of time, various bequests and foundations made it possible to start building a church in 1766, which was consecrated in 1773 and further equipped over the next few years. The tower was finally completed in 1779. The church continued to receive donations and sacrifices from the already numerous pilgrims.

In 1782 Kumitz was promoted to a local curate and in 1788 the parish Maria Kumitz was founded. The villages in the western Hinterberg (the area of the former municipality of Pichl-Kainisch) were parish from Aussee and the Obersdorf at the foot of the Kumitzberg also became part of the new parish.

The church was enlarged in 1829, 1846 and 1872 (extension, vestibule in front of the main entrance, side chapels). The excellent furnishings of the church come to a large extent from Johann Fortschegger, who worked in Mitterndorf (tabernacle, high altar figures, pulpit).

There are five station chapels along the way up the mountain .

The church received a bell from Aussee in 1878. It dates from the Middle Ages (mid to late 13th century) and returned in 1949 after it had to be delivered in World War II .

The Maria Kumitz Church is also currently (2017) the destination of various pilgrimages.

Parish Tauplitz

In 1751 there was an incident in Tauplitz (still Pürgg parish). Kohl leaders failed a priest with the Blessed Sacrament on Versehgang was that reverence. This drew attention to the long suspected Tauplitzer and measures were taken against the secret Lutherans. Finally, in 1753 a number of them were induced to emigrate to Transylvania (probably also less voluntarily) .

Subsequently, two Catholic missionary priests came from Vienna to Tauplitz ( Servites ). An emergency church was built. Temporarily impacted Chorherrn from Vorau here. Diocesan priests have looked after the Tauplitzer since 1771. Presumably around 1780 a separate parish was established and in 1785 today's parish church of the Holy Cross was built.

The parish church Tauplitz corresponds to a Josephine parish church with simple furnishings. The high altar, however, has an altarpiece of high artistic standing: the oil painting "Christ on the Cross" by Kremser Schmidt . The pulpit is by Johann Fortschegger from Mitterndorf.

In the summer there have been services for the alpine staff and the already numerous tourists on the Tauplitzalm since 1946 . In 1962/63, the small Trinity Church with a pointed roof and glass paintings by Alfred Wickenburg was built for them near the mountain station of the Tauplitz chairlift on the Alm .

Evangelical Church AB

Bad Mitterndorf is, with the rest of the Hinterberg, part of the Evangelical Community in Bad Aussee.

Due to the growing number of Protestant Christians, a plot of land in an elevated position above the town near the cemetery was purchased in 1934 under Pastor G. Mayer and the Kreuzkirche , a small church made entirely of wood, was built. In 1964 the church received its final interior (church pews).

From the history of modern times to the First World War

General

The beginning of the modern age was marked not only by the Reformation and Counter-Reformation, but also by social unrest. The Schladming peasant and miner revolt of 1525 also affected the Hinterbergertal. Heaps that had gathered in Aussee moved into the Ennstal . In 1594 an armed band of 30 mercenaries and many women had to be dispersed by the land professional .

The Hinterbergertal was not badly affected by the French Wars at the turn of the 18th and 19th centuries, even during Napoleon's campaigns in Austria. In December 1800, a landstorm contingent was set up in Aussee, which set out on the march in the direction of Ennstal. However, news of the armistice at Steyr reached Mitterndorf and it turned back. French troops stayed in the country after the Peace of Lunéville in 1801. The Hinterberg was less affected than the Ausseerland proper . It mainly suffered from requisitions (cattle). In Obersdorf, a farmer was kicked and mistreated because he did not bring the roast on the table quickly enough. In Krungl a prisoner sprang from a passing troop and was able to hide successfully despite several houses being searched.

Manorials (old communities Bad Mitterndorf and Pichl-Kainisch)

From the Middle Ages until the administrative division into districts and municipalities , landlords throughout Austria owned the land and the inhabitants, which also included the exercise of public law powers. Landlords were often not closed areas; properties in one village could be subject to different rulers.

In the Hinterberg, however, one dominion comprised the largest part of the area, namely the sovereign dominion Hinterberg. In 1576 this rule had arable people in the entire area of the old communities Bad Mitterndorf and Pichl-Kainisch.

In 1606 the Aussee trader and financier Andre (Andrä) Gruber, the builder of Grubegg Castle, acquired a small part of the Hinterberg estate. This lordship of Grubegg then had different owners until it was bought by Salinenärar and Grubegg Castle in 1758/59. In 1848, when the manors were abolished, it had 27 subjects in Mitterndorf, Neuhofen, Obersdorf and Pichl.

Andre Gruber had owned the Hinterberg estate as a pledge since 1591, and his heirs after his death. In 1606 it was pledged to the Jesuits, who held it until 1773 (abolition of the order). It went back into state ownership (Salinenärar) and was administered from Aussee together with Grubegg. In 1848 it had 366 subjects. Eight subjects belonged to the parish, 99 subjects to eleven foreign rulers.

The municipalities that existed before the municipal structural reform in 2015 were created in 1849 with the provisional municipal law.

Development since the First World War

During the July coup of 1934 there were battles lasting several days, the focus of which was Upper Styria , both in the industrial area between Judenburg and Leoben and in the Styrian Ennstal . The bloodiest arguments took place in and around Schladming and in the Leoben- Donawitz area . In the Bad Mitterndorf town of Klachau, there was a shooting between members of the SA and the homeland security , which resulted in several deaths. One of the SA men involved was subsequently sentenced to death for murder and executed in the Leoben district court .

After the annexation of Austria in 1938, the municipality came to the Reichsgau Oberdonau , district of Gmunden, in accordance with the Ostmarkgesetz . From 1945 to June 1948 it remained in what was now Upper Austria and was part of the American zone of occupation in Austria. On July 1, 1948, it came back to Styria (Liezen district) with the entire judicial district of Bad Aussee and thus to the British occupation zone.

After the end of the Second World War , there was an upturn, especially in the area of winter tourist traffic. Mitterndorf has been a health resort since 1972 (three natural and local healing factors: healing thermal baths, healing moor and healing climate; two thermal baths: mud and thermal baths) and bears the title of bath .

Sculptor Ferdinand Böhme offered the place a space in 2013: “The Woferlstall is being brought to new life” This became a cultural initiative in the sense of independent regional development: “The Woferlstall is not only used by the EIKE-Forum association , but can also be used by all interested private individuals, Groups and clubs can be used for different events. "
The EIKE forum sees itself as "a platform for the promotion of art, education and culture in Bad Mitterndorf."
One of the cultural initiatives that is continuously involved in this location is the “Salzkammergut Network”. One of the main concerns of this network is: “The Salzkammergut Network Association places the promotion of knowledge transfer and innovative impulses for regional development at the center of its activities. He organizes a wide range of educational, cultural, scientific and media projects. ”With this in mind, scientist Günther Marchner, the chairman of the network, anchored part of the cultural clasp in Bad Mitterndorf in December 2014 . There is a cooperation with the East Styrian cultural initiative Kunst Ost and the Belgrade collective Heterotopia PerpetuumMobile .

Economy and Infrastructure

Economic history

Until the 19th century, the area's economic development was shaped by the connection to salt production in Aussee.

Due to the location on the salt road from Aussee via Klachau into the Ennstal and on to Rottenmann and Rein on the one hand and through the Stein pass and on over the passes of the Niedere Tauern into the Murtal and on to the Lavanttal on the other hand, many people from Mitterndorf were active as salt carters and haulers . Grain and wine were delivered as return freight, and cattle were herded.

The forest-covered mountain slopes that surround the Hinterbergertal were sovereign property. They were used for forestry to cover the large wood requirements of the Aussee salt works. The forests were subordinate to the Hallamt until 1849 and then passed into the state administration of the Forstarkar (today Austrian Federal Forests ). In the middle of the 19th century the Hinterberg supplied a wood surplus of 40,000 fathoms . The logging was entrusted to wood masters, they rewarded the lumbermen in kind and money. Forest regulations contained detailed provisions to prevent forest damage and to limit the use for agricultural purposes. There was a certain reference to this need.

The peat mining at the Ödensee also served to cover the saltworks' fuel requirements , and it was also used as a royal shelf. In 1794 there were already 50 drying huts, and 60,000 bricks were extracted annually. Production increased to 1,300,000 bricks (1820) and lasted until the first half of the 20th century.

A hammer mill with a cutting , stretching and sheet metal hammer was built in 1789 - again by the Hallamt. It was in Grubegg at the entrance to the Stein Pass. Among other things, sheets were produced for the salt pans in Aussee. The company ended after 1850 and a sawmill was operated in its place. Its foundation walls are now flooded by the Salza reservoir . For this hammer mill, they began (without great success) to mine an iron ore deposit on the Teltschenalm (north of the Kampl near Obersdorf). This ended in 1846, ore heaps are still visible there.

In Grubegg there was also a powder mill on the Salzabach . This powder pound produced powder for the mining operations in Altaussee and the military and had been in operation since 1741. There were frequent explosions, the last time in 1910 before the final cessation of powder production. A building with a distinctive chimney stood until after 1950, the location with some houses is still called "powder pound" today.

Fishing in the Ödensee was first mentioned in 1461. Since 1755 the Ödensee was fished jointly by the Jesuit rule and the Arar.

In 1877 the Salzkammergutbahn was opened, which opened up new possibilities, especially for tourism.

tourism

The Grimming thermal baths

Today tourism forms an essential part of Bad Mitterndorf's economic power. Together with Altaussee, Bad Aussee and Grundlsee, the municipality forms the “Ausseerland-Salzkammergut” tourist association. Its seat is in Bad Aussee.

Grimming-Therme: With the opening of the Grimming-Therme and the 350 bed Hotel Aldiana Salzkammergut in autumn 2009, a further improvement in the tourist offer was achieved in the Salzkammergut. Around 25 million euros were invested in thermal baths and hotels. In addition to public funding, Porr, Mandlbauer and a bank consortium are financing the project, with the German Aldiana group acting as the operator . This is hoped for an additional 60,000 overnight stays in the region and 130 new jobs have been created. On October 5, 2015, the Grimming-Therme files for bankruptcy. The Grimming-Therme is 51% privately held (three owners with 17% each) and owned by the municipality of Bad Mitterndorf (39% and 10% respectively) through two subsidiaries.
Sonnenalm : The Sonnenalm holiday complex with its eight six-story apartment houses and numerous small holiday homes and bungalows, which was built in the 1970s, forms the main part of the tourist accommodation in Bad Mitterndorf.

education

Bad Mitterndorf has three elementary schools (Bad Mitterndorf, Tauplitz and Knoppen) and a new middle school .
