Stainz is a market town with 8,749 inhabitants (as of January 1, 2020) in the district and judicial district of Deutschlandsberg in Styria ( Austria ).

As part of the Styrian community structural reform , it has been merged with the communities of Stallhof , Stainztal , Rassach , Marhof and Georgsberg since 2015 , the new community continues to bear the name Stainz. The basis for this is the Styrian Municipal Structural Reform Act - StGsrG.

geography

Stainz is located on the foothills of the Koralpe in western Styria . The most important river in the municipality is the Stainzbach .

• The former municipality of Rassach is traversed by the Saubach, an important elevation is the Frauenkogel at 404 meters.
• The most important brooks in the former municipality of Marhof are the Theussenbach, the Sierlingbach and the Rainbach, which all flow into the largest brook in the area, the Stainzbach. Important surveys of Rosenkogel ( 1362  m ), Mothiltor ( 1,240  m ) and the border with the monastery and precious scrap lying Reinischkogel ( 1463  m ). The rocks on which Marhof lies belong to the Koralm crystalline and have been scientifically examined in detail.

Names

The place name is z. B. in bus timetables, also called Stainz in West Styria . This serves to distinguish it from the place Stainz bei Straden in the district of Southeast Styria. Before 1919, the addition also served to differentiate between places on the river Stainz (Ščavnica) , e.g. B. Stanz, Stainzthal or St. Georgen an der Stainz ( Sveti Jurij ob Ščavnici ) in the then judicial district of Oberradkersburg in Lower Styria .

The place Stainz lies on the river of the same name, the Stainzbach, it is mentioned in 1160 as circa rivum stauwencz . The name is derived from a striking (sour or salty) tasting spring water (Sauerbrunn) and traced back to the Slovenian word ščava . As evidence for this, it is stated that Stainz and other places with this name in Styria are located near places and bodies of water whose names (such as Sulz ... ) indicate such bodies of water or which later became known as mineral waters (e.g. . Bad Sauerbrunn near Marhof west of Stainz).

The names Stainz and Sauerbrunn are regarded as a Slavic-German double name in this context.

Names of districts on ... neurath are regarded as clearing names that indicate a newly cleared area. The name Pösneurath at Pichling was 1,494 as Poesnewrat mention what "has the clearing of little value" as is interpreted ( mhd. Boese "poor, poor, worthless").

The place name Tomberg in the south of Stainz was written as Tanperg in 1432 and is thus derived from fir (a mountain overgrown with fir trees). Other spellings that prove this interpretation are 1373 Tamperch , 1465 am Tan bei Stainz , 1475 Tonberg , 1753 Tamberger hart .

Stainz does not border on the Frauental community, because the cadastral communities Tanzelsdorf (belongs to Groß St. Florian) and Gersdorf (belongs to Deutschlandsberg, formerly Gams) in the south of Stainz (KG Rassach) border each other about 60 m on the course of the Vochera brook thus separating Stainz from Frauental (KG Schamberg).

history

Archaeological excavations on the Lethkogel near the Stainzer Warte document the processing of copper in melting furnaces from the Copper Age to the late La Tène period.

Stainz was first mentioned as Stawiz in 1177 and received market rights and its own jurisdiction in 1218. In 1229 Leuthold von Wildon founded the Augustinian Canon Monastery . A legend tells that Leuthold accidentally killed a child at this point while hunting.

In the southwest of Stainz in the village of Neurathberg in the farm vlg. “Pletteri” received the remainder of a fortified residence. This building is considered to be the residence of Rudlinus de Nivriut , mentioned as a witness in a document dated February 18, 1245 . The listed Pletteri Chapel is located nearby.

At the end of the 19th century, the remains of the defense tower "Polan", also known as "Pollan" or "Pöllibergschloss", were located on the Lethkogel where today's observation tower is located. This complex was the seat of a family of servants of the Lords of Wildon and is believed to have been built at the end of the 12th century. According to recent research, this defense tower was not located at the highest point of the Lethkogel, but on a hilltop near the Engelweingarten, which is derived from the relevant finds. One of the buildings in the vicinity that was connected to this tower is the “Ganster” farm, whose cellar wall is 1.8 m thick and has only one opening, a loopholes. In a document dated April 17, 1247, Rudolf de Polan is named as a witness.

In the cadastral communities of Graschuh , Pichling and Angenofen , in the 21st century References to the settlement history: There was a "Bauerngmoa" (in the land register: "Bauerngmein"). These plots were jointly owned by the owners of several (partly former) farms. The ownership shares were not assigned to persons in the land register, but rather linked to the ownership of the properties of these farms (the so-called “master properties” in the land register). This distribution of ownership was based on documents from the years 1881/82. The designation is proof that these areas are remnants of a village common property ( common property ), such areas were referred to in Bavarian usage as "G (e) mein". They existed in many places that arose in the 12th or 13th century and are indications of a planned settlement of an area, the framework conditions of which were determined by an authority. From the late Middle Ages, however, these communal areas were mostly divided up among those entitled due to discrepancies or their area was assigned to new farms (chaste, Huben). This also proves the relatively small size of the properties recently. About the Bauerngmein in Pichling (named in the land register "Pessneurather Bauergmein" after the district of Pösneurath) a division procedure was opened in 2016 and ended in 2018, also about the Gmoa in Graschuh.

In 1440 the Särl family was enfeoffed with the residence, and in 1622 the Racknitzer family. In the second half of the 17th century the farm was still considered a fief, but no longer the seat of a noble family.

In 1785 the monastery was abolished by Emperor Josef II and the canons had to leave it. The valuable books and many other materials on the history of the monastery were supposed to be brought to Graz, but were lost forever in a transport accident because they were subsequently no longer recovered. Archduke Johann bought the castle and estate of Stainz in 1840 for a total of 250,000 guilders . In 1850 he was elected the first mayor of the market town of Stainz, which then had 700 inhabitants.

The judicial district of Stainz was created by a proclamation passed in 1849 .

From 1850 to 1854, the Stainz district existed with an branch in Voitsberg .

In the 1880s, an ignition goods factory was built in Stainz. Since the local population initially did not want to work in the factory, a large part of the workforce was recruited from the Slovenian Lower Styria and Croatia in the early years. Before the First World War, the factory's workforce comprised around 450 employees and fell to 179 in the 1920s. When it closed in April 1927, the company still had 120 employees.

In the interwar period of the 20th century, the market town of Stainz was one of the “crystallization centers” of the NSDAP, which was emerging as a result of the global economic crisis in Austria . The Styrian municipal council elections of 1932 also brought a Nazi mandate to the Stainz municipal council for the first time, namely one of the judges of the Stainz district court. During the Nazi July coup in 1934, the market and its surroundings were completely ruled by the Nazis, who occupied the gendarmerie post barracks and other public buildings. A total of three people died in the fight for the gendarmerie post: the post commander, a member of the Home Guard and a National Socialist. After the putsch was put down, 117 people were arrested in the area of ​​the Stainz gendarmerie post for participating in the July coup, and an unknown number of other putschists had fled.

The Anschluss in 1938 was also celebrated enthusiastically in Stainz. Parades, speeches and celebrations determined the following months in Stainz and were intended to make the residents aware of the " Volksgemeinschaft " propagated by the National Socialists . In the referendum on April 10th, which was supposed to sanction the reintegration of Austria into the German Reich, there was only one vote against in Stainz. The importance that the market had always had for the Nazi movement was also underlined by the fact that Stainz was initially the seat of the district leadership of the NSDAP of the Deutschlandsberg district. The district leader was a dentist practicing in Stainz. The Deutschlandsberg National Socialists, who felt so neglected, did everything they could to move the headquarters of the district leadership to their city, and they were ultimately successful. In 1938, Deutschlandsberg became the seat of the district administration and remained so until the end of the war.

On July 1, 2014, the Stainz District Court was dissolved and merged with the Deutschlandsberg District Court.

On the right you can see the wheel and the judge's sword, symbolic signs for the office of market judge. In addition, the wheel and sword are also the attributes of St. Catherine , the patron saint of the Stainz parish church.

With the municipality merger in 2015, the coats of arms of all old communities, including the Stainzer double coat of arms, lost their validity. The new award of the community coat of arms for the merged community took place with effect from December 5, 2016.
The new blazon (coat of arms description) reads:

"Between silver shield flanks, each with three green sea leaves on top of each other, in red under two golden six-pointed stars and above a golden cross, a silver Katharinenwheel, backed by a silver sword on the left."

The six lake leaves are symbolic of each district. Order star, wheel and judge's sword were taken from the old Stainzer double seal.

Stainz Castle is a former Augustinian canon monastery with the collegiate church of St. Katharina , which was founded by Leuthold von Wildon around 1229 and secularized by Emperor Josef II in 1785 . In 1840 it was acquired by Archduke Johann for 40,000 guilders . Today the castle is owned by the Counts of Meran , descendants of Archduke Johann. There is a museum in the castle that belongs to the Styrian Universal Museum Joanneum .

Stainz is best known for his Schilcher , who lived as early as 400 BC. Was pulled by the Celts . Every year in August, the Stainzer Schilcher Days are held, a multi-day festival around Schilcher wine and other local specialties. Stainz is also the namesake for the “ Stainzer Platten ”, a rock made of gneiss from which panels are extracted that are used as building material, flooring, etc.

Bottle train

The bottle train

The bottle train opened in 1892. Its name comes from the time of the miracle doctor Höllerhansl (1866–1935), who had the reputation of being able to recognize diseases from urine and who lived in Marhof near Stainz. For this reason, many sick people traveled with a bottle of urine, which is what gave the train its name. Today the bottle train is a tourist attraction.

A narrow-gauge steam locomotive built in 1914 is located at the roundabout on Radlpass-Straße B 76 in the south of Stainz as an advertising locomotive for the bottle train. However, this locomotive never ran on the Stainzerbahn, it only looks like the first locomotives on this route. It belonged to the railway facilities on the Erzberg (originally 830 mm gauge, road number 19). The locomotive was re-gauged to 900 mm during the Second World War (No. 2/60) and was used in the Donawitz ironworks from February 1954 (790 mm gauge as No. 60.4). Later it was installed as a toy locomotive in Leoben, before it was externally renovated in Stainz from 1994 and installed as a monument locomotive around 2002.
