history

The name Schnaitsee means "Grenzsee" and probably comes from the location of the village between the former counties of Kling and Trostberg. According to other sources, the name stands for Schneid (= watershed), referring to the moor lakes on the watershed below the town.

Antiquity

A coin find from the Roman Empire and the tombstone of a Roman from Juvavum (Salzburg) in the church of Titlmoos bear witness to the presence of the Romans in the area. The stone bears the inscription “ Et Lucius Virius Maximinianus, Decurio. Aedilis Curalis civitatis Juvavenis et Viria Moderata et sibi fecerunt. "

middle Ages

Schnaitsee is mentioned for the first time in 924 in the "Codex Odalberti". In 950 Schnaitsee (Sneideseo) was the seat of a Count Sighard , who was related to the Carolingians .

Modern times

In the Thirty Years' War the Swedes were able to advance from the west to the Inn in 1632 . A wave of refugees followed, who often moved with their belongings, including their cattle, to the right bank of the river. Although Schnaitsee was not occupied by the enemy, the population there suffered: the burden of caring for the refugees, high taxes and robberies and mistreatment on the part of the imperial and Bavarian soldiers erupted in an uprising in 1634 in which smaller equestrian detachments were attacked and in Kling Castle captured farmers were freed. Around 1,500 farmers from the judicial districts of Kling and Kraiburg gathered on the Achatzberg above Wasserburg, whereupon the military was finally sent to the Achatzberg. 170 farmers were captured and three of them were executed as ringleaders .

During the war raged in Schnaitsee for the first time the plague . Between 1635 and 1639, 293 people died of this disease in the parish , which at that time corresponded to about a third of the population, after which the plague went out again for the time being. In 1649, after the end of the war, the epidemic flared up again, and by 1650 another 194 people died in the Schnaitsee parish. There was also another plague, as flocks of wolves invaded Bavaria via the Bohemian Forest . They united to fight the animals, so that this danger could be eliminated by 1650.

Modern

During the regional reform , Schnaitsee was enlarged on January 1, 1978 to include the area of ​​the formerly independent communities of Kirchstätt and Waldhausen.

Between 1988 and 2018 the municipality grew from 3,083 to 3,662 by 579 inhabitants or by 18.8%.
