history

St. Veit around 1775 on a map of the Josephinische Landesaufnahme

In ancient times, the area of ​​today's St. Vitus was part of the Celtic Kingdom of Noricum and the later Roman province of the same name.

The actual place arose with the founding of the Church of St. Vitus by the Traungau Margrave Ottokar II of Styria, around which a small street settlement later developed. At that time the Gölsental was in the possession of the Styrian rulers, as the area between the Vienna Woods and the Pre-Alps was given as a dowry by Margrave Leopold II to his daughter Elisabeth of Austria when she married Ottokar II. The followers of Ottokar II from the ministerial families Hohenstaff-Altenburger-Hohenberger received the castles near Hainfeld and St. Veit. Among other things, you were the clearing manager for the urbanization of the Gölsental and quickly gained influence. It is documented that around 1100 Friedrich von Hohenstaff , by the name of Vogt of the Church of St. Vitus, built the Staffburg on St. Veiter Staff on the Staffspitze , on which the Hohenstaff family was to reside until 1202.

The rule of the Traungau over St. Veit ended in 1192 when, after the death of the last Styrian Duke Ottokar IV, the Gölsental and other areas fell back to the Babenbergs according to the Georgenberger Handfeste .
