After the Treaty of Teschen in 1779, the place with the Innviertel (then Innbaiern ) became part of Austria . Briefly Bavarian during the Napoleonic Wars , since 1814 it has finally belonged to Austria ob der Enns . In 1821, the Imperial Counts of Arco-Valley, succeeding the extinct Imperial Counts of Tattenbach, became owners of the dominion of St. Martin, which had already been established in the Middle Ages.

The place became a political municipality in 1850 .

After the annexation of Austria to the German Reich on March 13, 1938, the place belonged to the Gau Oberdonau . Between February and May 1945 the community became a refuge for the world-famous Lipizzaner stallions of the Spanish Riding School . On May 7, 1945, Colonel Alois Podhajsky presented the stallions to the American General George S. Patton in St. Martin to request his protection. After 1945 the restoration of Upper Austria took place.
