history

Süßenbrunn around the year 1873 ( recording sheet of the state survey)

The Süßenbrunn settlement was originally owned by the Schottenstift and was mentioned in 1140 as a Prunne . The name sweet could come from a quality designation for the water as well as from the name of the owner of the castle in the 12th century, Count Sicco (also: Sizzo).

As early as 1560, Barbara von Puchaim brought the village of Wagram into the marriage with Sigmund Graf von Landau, who united it with the rule of Süßenbrunn. After the Counts of Landau had professed Protestantism in 1580, a short Protestant period followed in Wagram. When Georg and Erasmus von Landau went so far as to refuse to pay homage to Emperor Ferdinand II (1595), they were ostracized, their goods were confiscated and placed under the administration of the court chamber and they were expelled from the country themselves.

In 1620, Süßenbrunn , built as an anger village , was mentioned as a noble seat. However , it was badly destroyed during the Turkish sieges . In 1713 a moated castle was built in Süßenbrunn. A small church was built on the site of the former village green in 1837. This was replaced in 1980 by a new building designed by the architects Johann Hoffmann and Erwin Plevan . The church tower cross, the clockwork and the dial of the old parish church are in the district museum Donaustadt . The small Süßenbrunn cemetery was consecrated in 1893. In 1938 Süßenbrunn came to the 22nd district of Groß-Enzersdorf, part of the new Groß-Wien . Since 1954 the place has formed the Donaustadt district with seven other communities.
