Early history, naming and first mention

As part of the Archbishopric of Salzburg (since 1275), Anger fell to Archduke Ferdinand of Tuscany during the secularization of 1803 , to Austria in the Peace of Pressburg in 1805, which then had to cede it to Bavaria in the Peace of Schönbrunn in 1809/10 as part of the " Rupertiwinkel " .

Banner and coat of arms
Blazon : "Two crossed silver keys in red, above a silver pilgrim's shell, underneath a silver Raitelhaken." | |
Justification of the coat of arms: The coat of arms of the municipality of Anger refers with the composition of the figures to the incorporation of the formerly independent municipalities Aufham and Högl into it in 1978 . Elements have been adopted from all three municipal coats of arms up to 1978. The tinging in red and silver refers to the historical affiliation of the municipality to the Prince Archbishopric of Salzburg until 1803. The crossed keys, as attributes of St. Peter, remind us that Anger (until 1937 Stoißberg) was donated to the St. Peter monastery in Salzburg as early as 1000 and later came to the Augustinian monastery Höglwörth as endowment , which also had the crossed keys in the coat of arms because of the same patron saint. The Raitelhaken, a lifting tool for the transport of stones, comes from the former municipality coat of arms of Högl and refers to the sandstone quarries that were operated in Oberhögl from the 16th century to 1913 and were used for the production of window and door frames, grinding and Whetstones were of national importance. The pilgrim shell was taken from the Aufham coat of arms as a symbol and, as an attribute of St. Jacob, refers to the local church patronage.
The coat of arms was introduced in 1980 on the legal basis of a resolution of the municipal council and with the consent of the government of Upper Bavaria . (The letter from the government of Upper Bavaria is dated July 30, 1980.) The municipality colors of the flag are: white - red - white. |

Since there were few forests around Salzburg, firewood was also brought to the state capital.

Mainly wheat, millet, spelled and rye were grown and cattle, horses, goats, pigs and poultry such as ducks, geese and chickens were kept as cattle.
