The Traberg area is located about 25 kilometers northwest of Linz , halfway between Rohrbach and Freistadt , each about 20 kilometers from these, in the middle between Oberneukirchen in the south, Bad Leonfelden in the east, and Helfenberg in the west. It includes a valley and pass landscape in the southern Bohemian Forest foothills in the valley of the Distelbach (Schallenbergbach) , a right feeder of the Große Rodl , up to the upper Altenschläger Bach , which flows into the Steinernen and then the Große Mühl . The area extends about 7½ km northwest between the Waxenberger Hofwald  ( 833  m above sea level ) - Schallenwald ( Schallenberg929  m above sea level880  m above sea level near Ahorn) to the southwest, and the Brunnwald  ( 841  m above sea level ) - Höchlwald (Höchwald , approx.  938  m above sea level ). The top of the pass in the area is at Obertraberg - Faberreut  (approx.  864  m above sea level ).

The location as such is now only used as the postcode name 4183  Traberg . It includes around 390 addresses. These include, in the valley, the villages :

The localities are spread over two political districts, but all belong to the Rohrbach judicial district .

The L1492 Schallenbergstraße Waxenberg - Helfenberg runs through the valley  , in Großtraberg the L1490 Brunnwaldstraße branches off  to Bad Leonfelden, from which the L1491 Vorderweißbacher Straße leads to Vorderweißbach in the Brunnwald  .

history

The room was cleared and made arable as early as the High Middle Ages . Until modern times it was a transit region to Bohemia . Traberg was subordinate to Wilhering Abbey .

Ignaz Gielge describes the place Draberg or Traberg 1814 as follows:

“A parish in the Mühlviertel and Waxenberg commissariat districts , on the very poor commercial road from Linz to Helfenberg and Haßlach , it is very high on the Droberge, which stretches far between Brunn and the Schallenberger Walde; the area is mostly mountainous and wooded, therefore also cold; One has to bleach a lot of linen because the inhabitants mostly have to sew the flax and spiders; on Waxenberg you have 1 and on Helfenberg 2 hours to walk; this parish contains 8 villages, 156 houses in which 1011 people live.
Nothing is known from antiquity except that it used to be a forest, most of the villages end in -schlag , and the parish has been rebuilt. "

At that time, the Droberg / Drahberg / Traberg was understood to mean the Höchlwald and the top of the pass.
In 1827, Benedikt Pillwein describes the present day Großtraberg under the Lemma Traberg , and gives: "The total population of the parish consists of 1,076 hardworking and good people."

In 1840 Johann von Frast wrote about the Localie Traburg :

“A fairly long mountain stretch between the Brunnwalde, Waxenbergwalde and Schallenbergerwalde, which seems to have been excavated and reclaimed a long time ago, is called the Droh- or, as it is usually called, the Traberg. The same names are given to the villages that are initially located and surrounding it, but which were probably given the appendices: Ober-, Groß- and Klein-Traberg according to their location or the number of houses standing together.
The first settlement seems to have taken place in Groß-Traberg, today's parish of Traberg, on the square on which the so-called Peiglinger inn stands, the builder of which may have made a long stretch his own because the whole of the present village formerly belonged to that house. A road leads through this village from Ober-Neukirchen to Helfenberg, and also via Hinter-Weißenbach to Friedberg in Bohemia. "

Furthermore, Frast says of the Traberg parish church , built in 1784–87, “the church is cute and spacious enough for the parishioners”, and states that “the school building with a teaching room was built in 1790”. The latter is noteworthy, it is said that a permanent teacher could be provided with accommodation and that classes were regular (a goal of the Theresian-Josephine reforms ). Pillwein also emphasized that the church, the rectory and the school had been "newly and tastefully" built by the monastery.

When the local congregations were created after 1848/49 , the places came to lie in several congregations, some were simply divided. Großtraberg, whose old name was Traberg , was the main town of the Waldschlag community , which was incorporated into Oberneukirchen in 1938.

The postcode has been valid since January 1, 1966, when a separate post office was set up in Großtraberg .
