In 1891, the trained stonemason Jakob Prähauser founded a workers' education association in Hallein , the predecessor of the Salzburg SPÖ. Prähauser was also the first state party chairman and represented his state at the 2nd Austrian Social Democratic Party Congress . From 1896 he was the first leader of the social democratic movement in the state of Salzburg as state secretary. At the beginning of the 20th century, the social democratic movement was formed from a loose bundle of associations to form the party. The state party organization was founded in 1899 and the first district and community organizations emerged in 1901.

Social Democrats in the Resistance

After Engelbert Dollfuss came to power and the February coup in 1934 , the Social Democratic Party was also banned in Salzburg. Josef Pfeffer organized the illegal Revolutionary Socialists (RSÖ) , but was arrested by the Nazi regime in 1938 and later died in a concentration camp .

The railway worker August Gruber was the liaison man of the Revolutionary Socialists , who was beheaded on March 23, 1943 in Berlin-Plötzensee :

“ At 6:36 p.m., the convict was brought before two prison officials, hands cuffed behind his back. The executioner Röttger from Berlin was ready with his three assistants. The condemned man, calm and collected, let himself be laid on the guillotine without reluctance, whereupon the executioner performed the beheading with the guillotine and then reported that the sentence had been carried out. Enforcement took 18 seconds from presentation to enforcement. "

- Nazi protocol of the execution

The two social democrats Alois Auer and Rudolf Hartl were murdered together with August Gruber. Since 1997 a commemorative plaque in the stone floor of the counter at the Salzburg local train station has been commemorating the three resistance fighters.

Second republic

While the SPÖ only provided the mayor in the city of Salzburg from 1946 to 2017, with a brief interruption from 1992 to 1999, the party was only able to achieve second place in the state by 2004.

In the state elections on March 7, 2004 , the SPÖ Salzburg won the most votes for the first time in the Second Republic, with 45.40% , and for the first time provided the regional head, Governor Gabi Burgstaller, in a coalition with the ÖVP , the regional government Burgstaller I bis 2009. In the subsequent state elections in 2009 , the SPÖ lost around 6 percentage points, but was able to hold onto first place and continued the coalition in the Burgstaller II state government . In the 2013 state election , which was brought forward as a result of the speculation scandal in 2012 , the SPÖ lost more than 15.5 percentage points and thus its top position to the ÖVP. As a result, the SPÖ left the government in favor of the Greens and Team Stronach . On the evening of the election, May 5th, Gabi Burgstaller announced her retirement from politics. Her successor at the head of the state party was the previous deputy governor, Walter Steidl .
