Stolzalpe municipality

The local church as an autonomous body was established in 1850.

In 1920 and 1924, respectively, two “sun homes” were set up at the Stolzalpe tuberculosis sanatorium. After Austria was annexed in 1938 , the community became part of the Reichsgau Steiermark, from 1945 to 1955 it was part of the British zone of occupation in Austria.

Stolzalpe was an independent municipality until December 31, 2014, with a last population of 449 (as of October 31, 2013). On January 1, 2015, it became part of the municipal structural reform in Styria with the previously independent municipalities of Laßnitz bei Murau and Triebendorf of the municipality of Murau .

The community consisted of only one village and cadastral community. At the time, the communities of Rinegg , St. Peter am Kammersberg , Triebendorf , Laßnitz bei Murau and Murau bordered the community of Stolzalpe (starting clockwise in the north).

Mayor was Wolfgang Hager  (SPÖ) until December 31, 2014 . The municipal council , which was also dissolved on December 31, 2014 , was composed as follows after the 2010 elections: 5  SPÖ , 3  ÖVP , 1  FPÖ

Municipal coat of arms
