history

"Söllheim". Franzisco-Josephinische Landesaufnahme , sheet 31-48 Salzburg , around 1900 (with Salzkammergut local railway , Sam between this and the Salzburg-Tyrolean railway )

The old Samer farm

The old farm was mentioned in a document as Savme as early as 1250 and, together with the entire surrounding area, was under the ownership of St. Peter's Abbey. Today's Samer farm (or Samhof) refers to an old farm in the flat embankment directly above the new settlement, which got its name again from the Samers , the profession that in the Middle Ages and also in the early modern times goods from the Brought the Mediterranean to Salzburg. Saum was the weight of the individual load carried, Säumer or Samer were the names of the traders who often supplemented their meager income in agriculture with trading activities.

The Samer settlement

The area originally belonged to the Hallwang municipality , Esch village . The first connection was created with the construction of the Salzkammergut local railway (opened in 1891), which rose here via Söllheim.

The settlement was built during the period of the authoritarian corporate state (see also Austrofascism ) and was inaugurated on November 3, 1935. This new settlement on the outskirts was intended to counteract the general housing shortage and combat high unemployment in the construction industry. In the form of building, however, instead of the dense urban building, at that time often disparagingly referred to as "socialist mass housing", the open "down-to-earth" building on the outskirts - similar to the "intact living and economic community in the farmhouse" should be promoted. With the fear of increasing radicalization of the workforce, the satisfactory moment was not insignificant for the company. The settlement was built in a place where clay had been extracted from brick ponds for decades for the nearby brick kiln ( Ceconi kiln, Hannak kiln, etc.). After dismantling, the landscape was no longer suitable for agriculture. The brick ponds were largely filled in and filled up in the course of the construction work, but sometimes only later. Only the Bittner ponds in Sam are still preserved today. These are named after one of the two contractors at the time.

The residential area was first called Franz-Ullreich-Siedlung , named after the founder and long-time chairman of the Viennese housing, construction and settlement cooperative Heim (founded in 1912), which had a branch in Salzburg. The settlement comprised 44 residential buildings. The acquisition of a residential property was carried out according to the principle that is still common today when buying condominiums . In addition, the owners were obliged to participate in the construction as part of the voluntary labor service or to pay a corresponding payment. After the Second World War , the original name was dropped and the settlement was renamed Sam , as the entire area had been named before. A monument to Franz Ullreich located at the settlement was removed at an unknown time.

In 1939, Sam - with the whole of what is now the Langwied district - was incorporated by Hallwang into the city of Salzburg.

In the same year the construction of the Westautobahn (then Reichsautobahn, today A1) began here, but this came to a standstill in 1941. The highway was not completed until the later 1950s. A motorway service station was built above Sam, near Nussdorf . In 1957, the Salzkammergut local railway was discontinued and dismantled, the Söllheimer hiking trail remained , which, although gravel, is still formally designated as a state road (L 261). A well-developed bike path runs here today.

Differentiation from Itzling and Gnigl

Itzling-Ost , the Gleisdreieck, is sometimes included in Sam, as Samerstraße still runs there. This has historical reasons, small parts to the west of the underpass, through which the Salzkammergut local railway formerly passed, formerly belonged to Hallwang (cadastral community Hallwang II ). Itzling-Ost also belongs to the official statistical counting district Sam / Kasern . In the modern urban structure, however, it is included in Itzling.

Occasionally, in recent times, the Gnigl-Nord district has been added to the Sam settlement, although this is incomprehensible in view of the development of the settlement. This is due to the fact that the Bachstrasse industrial area of Gnigl-Nord near Sam / Kasern is also statistically recorded - but not the residential areas south of it. The Salzburg-Sam train stop at the marshalling yard is also in Gnigl-Nord.

The Alterbach as the south-east border of Langwied, still spanned by only a few bridges and at least tree-lined here along its entire length, is still a defining dividing line in the urban structure.

Transport, infrastructure and sights

Sam was first connected to local public transport on December 14, 1983 with the former Citybus line W. Today, Sam can be reached by trolleybus line  10 (to Sam-Lankesstraße ) and bus line 23 (main station - Sam - Obergnigl).

The Salzburg-Sam stop of the S-Bahn Salzburg (line S3) has been near Sam, but already in the northern part of Gnigl, since 2005 .

Sam is isolated from road traffic by the many tracks, access from the city is possible via the narrow Samstrasse from Vogelweiderstrasse (crossing of the Westbahn underpass ), and Aglassinger Strasse or Bachstrasse from Gnigl. There is no through road out of town and to Langwied-Esch because of the grassland.

The most important campsite in the city of Salzburg is also located in Sam.

Notable buildings:

Sam's natural and recreational space

The green space between Sam and Langwied -Esch, the Langmoos , as well as towards Söllheim ( Bergsam ) is today used in a variety of ways as a local recreation area. The Möslweg and the Söllheimer Wanderweg are particularly popular hiking and walking trails. In the center of the preserved green space, east of the settlement, is the Samer Mösl , the last remaining moorland on the right bank of the Salzach in the city of Salzburg (natural monument and protected part of the landscape). The Langmoosweg to the north of the settlement is reminiscent of the former large moor in which the settlement was built.

In the far northwest, towards Kasern, there is still a protected part of the landscape, the Wallpachwald .
