history
The place is mentioned for the first time in 1208 as the Saligin Mountains , the name probably means "mountain of the saline people". The Middle High German "saelic" stands for "happy and freed from all earthly evils". Other forms of name are 1269 Sellingberg, 1272 Salingberg, 1284 Seligenberg, 1330 Seligenperge, 1374 Sälingberg, 1388 Seligenperg and 1464 Salingperg. In the first documentary mention of the place, a "Riwinus de Saliginberge" is mentioned, who attends a funeral as a witness. This was probably a servant or small nobleman who was in the service of Ulrich von Imbach .
In the course of the foundation of the Imbach monastery by Albero, Truchseß von Feldsberg, the local church is mentioned for the first time in 1269 . The parish was originally part of the Obermeisling parish. In the 14th century the parish was assigned to the dean's office in Krems-Stein, during the Reformation times and the Thirty Years War the place was affected, the church and the rectory were devastated and the bells and the chalice of the church were stolen.

In 1884 the fire brigade was founded in Sallingberg and the fire station was built right at the entrance to the village. It has since been torn down due to space problems and rebuilt in the Kremstal. In the same year the Raiffeisenkassa was founded in the village. In 1909 5 houses burned down in the village in a serious fire accident.
