history
In 1110 the place was first mentioned as Strachen . Between 1272 and 1301, the Schaunberger documents contain the names Chunrad von Strafen and Ulrich von Strafener . Other earlier names of Stroheim are among others: Stoffen, Strahen, Strohham, Stroham and Strohheim .
Stroheim was a manor until 1848 . In that year the communities Mayrhof and Großstroheim were formed, which in 1876 were merged to form the community Stroheim.
religion
Around 1235, Count Johann I von Schaunberg had a Catholic parish church built. The building with the 52 m high tower is dedicated to John the Baptist . The count was a member of the Order of St. John and handed the church over as a subsidiary church to the Johannites of Mailberg , the later Maltese . The Maltese cross in today's municipal coat of arms is derived from this fact .
In 1784 Stroheim became its own parish . The parish church, which was Gothic in its origins , was later rebuilt several times, including a neo-Gothic interior; it received its present form in 1896/97.
In addition to the parish church, there is also the Landerlkapelle in the Geisberg district , built in 1901 and donated by the Pupping monastery . It is the destination of the annual Ascension processions and can also be used as a wedding church.
Today (2006) approximately 75% of the population are Catholics.

The Johanniter-Ordenskommende Stroheim was probably established around 1260 or already 1235 on the basis of a donation from the Lords of Schaunberg within their sphere of influence and the Commandery Mailberg / Lower Austria. handed over as a branch; In 1273 the Marienkirche above "Strahen" was first mentioned in writing in a deed of donation to the master Wulfing in Mailberg.
