The shoulder height is about 1225  m above sea level. A. high road pass in Hohentauern in the Styrian Pölstal .

Location and landscape

The actual main pass from the Pölstal to the Paltental is the Triebener Tauernpass  ( 1274  m above sea level ) directly in the village of Hohentauern , down to the Tauernbach . The high valley of Hohentauern, however, is a flat pass landscape that actually drains west of the Tauern Pass into the Sunkbach , another tributary of the Triebenbach. The Pöls – Palten watershed, on the other hand, is about 3 kilometers south of the village, at the Draxler inn and is called shoulder height . It is an inconspicuous valley watershed to the Pölsbach , which comes directly south from the west from the Pölsen into the main valley. However, it separates the river basin of the Enns (Paltental) from that of the Mur (Pölstal) and the Drau and is thus part of the main watershed of the Eastern Alps.

South of the pass is the shoulder moss moorland , a saddle moor . The north side of the saddle is also swampy.

Geology and history

The Hohentauern pass landscape and the shoulder height were shaped during the ice ages by the local glaciation on the Bösenstein . A moraine has formed here, which presumably relocated the original source of the Pöls and diverted it north. The shoulder moss is an ice crumbling landscape.

The Roman road Virunum - Ovilava (Zollfeld - Wels) already ran through the Pölstal . A presumable Roman milestone was found when the old shoulderer farm was demolished . It was set up on the B114. The Mansio (post office) of Tartursanis could also have been located here.

The Tauernstrasse, today's Triebener Strasse  (B114), was then expanded again from the High Middle Ages. There was also one of Archduke Maximilian Wende 15./16. Forester's house built in the 19th century. It then served as accommodation for the vicars, later missionaries, who came from the mother parish of St. Lorenzen in the Paltental up to the Hohentauern branch for 250 years . But because it was far away from the village, a new rectory was built near the village church at the beginning of the 19th century. This former archducal forester's house, called the Kaiserhaus , was then also called the Alter Pfarrhof . It fell into disrepair to the foundation walls until after the First World War. Later the Draxlerhütte was built on it, today called Draxlerhaus and an inn.
