history

The name Schwarzmoos is derived from Schwarzes Moos , the name for a moor. The Josefinische Lagebuch shows that there were twelve buildings in 1788. The majority of the population at that time were workers with part-time farming. Until the 1930s, peat was also extracted in the eponymous moor, which lies east of the village on the border with Timelkam, and sold to the OKA (now Energie AG Oberösterreich ) power plant in Timelkam. The moor was drained as far as possible through extraction and construction.

There was a grocer's shop in Schwarzmoos until the 1960s, and there was also an inn until the 1970s.

From 1788 on, Schwarzmoos belonged to the parish of Oberthalheim (today the Timelkam parish).

economy

The village is shaped by agriculture and forestry, even if many of the former part-time businesses no longer exist. There are also three carpentry businesses in Schwarzmoos, which were founded in 1883, 1920 and 1988. The Rohöl-Aufsuchungs AG (RAG) operates a drilling and business center in the eastern part of the village.

Infrastructure

The municipal road to Gampern was built in the 1950s, before that there was no direct connection between Schwarzmoos (and the rest of the Vöcklatals) and Gampern. Recreational cycle paths run through Schwarzmoos and the Vöcklatal.

About one kilometer west of Schwarzmoos is the Neukirchen-Gampern stop on the Westbahn route, which is integrated into the local public transport network of ÖBB ( REX and R ) towards Linz and Salzburg .
