Coat of arms of the former community of Trahütten

Trahütten is a place in western Styria . Until the end of 2014, his area was a municipality with 396 inhabitants (as of 2014) in the Deutschlandsberg district . As part of the Styrian municipal structural reform , Trahütten was merged with the municipalities of Deutschlandsberg , Bad Gams , Freiland bei Deutschlandsberg , Kloster and Osterwitz in 2015 . The basis for this is the Styrian Municipal Structural Reform Act - StGsrG. A complaint that had been brought to the Constitutional Court in this context and was based on the fact that the then Trahütten community had sought a merger with the Osterwitz community was unsuccessful. Another complaint in which the three communities of Trahütten, Osterwitz and Freiland spoke out against the merger with Deutschlandsberg also remained unsuccessful.

geography

View of Trahütten

Trahütten is located at 994  m above sea level. A. and includes the cadastral communities of Kruckenberg, Rostock, Trahütten. The area lies in the Koralpe crystalline area , which is home to a number of mineral deposits. In the east of Trahütten, in the former quarry of the farm vlg. "Schwemmhoisl" in Warnblick, the heaviest rock crystal in Styria and the largest titanite crystals in the Alpine region were found at the beginning of the 1970s .

The parish church of Trahütten with rectory and cemetery as well as the Alban-Berg-Villa are under monument protection.

history

In the north-west of Trahütten, in the ditch between the Blasibauer and Halmannerl farms, there are heaps of an old mine, the age of which was estimated to be around the first millennium AD based on the found pottery shards. An iron smelting site with several racing furnaces has been proven. Another excavation for the foundation of a lift system in the area near Parfusswirt (plot No. 84/2) revealed the remains of a farmhouse that had been abandoned in the 18th century.

The place was part of the Mark Steiermark, created in 1122, which was separated from Bavaria as the Duchy of Styria in 1180 . From 1192 the area was ruled by the Babenbergs in personal union between Austria and Styria. From 1282 to 1918 the area was under the rule of the Habsburgs . After the quarter division of Styria from 1462 until the 18th century, the municipality was in the "quarter between Mur and Drau".

In the 16th and 17th centuries, the community area belonged to the “Landgericht Deutschlandsberg”, with jurisdiction changing and disputes over competence were not uncommon. However, this only applied outside the eaves : within it, full lower jurisdiction lay with the respective landlord in the 16th century.

After the area reforms under Maria Theresia and Joseph II , the area belonged to the Marburg district . On November 6, 1918, Trahütten came to the Republic of German-Austria as part of Styria. After the annexation of Austria in 1938, Trahütten was part of the Reichsgau Styria.

The ground fighting of the Second World War did not affect Trahütten. On February 25, 1944, however, a US Air Force plane crashed on the Mothi plain above Trahütten. The ten crew members were killed. There was a gendarmerie post in Trahütten which, due to its remote location, was seldom of major importance. Even in the context of the July putsch in 1934 , which claimed twelve deaths in the Deutschlandsberg district around July 25, 1934, the post only reported observations for his rayon at the rayon border with Deutschlandsberg and no other relevant activities. A few days before the end of the Second World War , however, an incident occurred in which a gendarme from the Trahütten post was killed by a Yugoslav partisan on March 15, 1945 on the way from Kruckenberg to Deutschlandsberg . This prompted the arrest of a number of people suspected of being supported by the partisans. 18 of which were on 10 April 1945 the Hebalm shot and below the Bloch bolt buried. 1945 to 1955 Trahütten was part of the British zone of occupation in Austria.

From 1910, the composer Alban Berg lived several times during the summer in the house of his in-laws Franz and Anna Nahowski , today's Alban Berg Villa. A number of his works were created there, Wozzeck and Lulu are also included. The pub scene in Wozzeck is said to have been inspired by the music at Kirtagen . The Alban-Berg-Weg is named after this composer. On the initiative of the Austrian music researcher Harald Kaufmann (1927–1970) , a memorial plaque was unveiled in June 1968 in the presence of Berg's widow, Helene Berg .

On January 1, 1969, the previously independent municipality of Rostock was merged with the municipality of Trahütten. On January 1, 1975, Trahütten was expanded to include parts of the dissolved municipality of Kruckenberg.

Location of the former municipality of Trahütten in the Deutschlandsberg district with the municipality boundaries until the end of 2014

On January 24, 1999, one of the most serious bus accidents in Austria occurred on the steeply sloping road towards Deutschlandsberg : 18 people were killed and 25 seriously injured when the brakes on a bus coming with skiers from the Weinebene failed and the bus went off the road.

In spring 2012, the Trahütten community decided to strive for a merger with the Osterwitz community and to reject the more far-reaching merger plans with Deutschlandsberg as part of the Styrian community structural reform . A corresponding application for this merger was rejected by the Styrian state government , but a complaint to the Constitutional Court was unsuccessful.

“… We in the cities do not have the huge old trees anywhere in our facilities like those on the farms on the slopes of the Koralpe. Magnificent linden tree in front of the Kogler house near Trahütten! You can enter the hollow of its trunk, just like a chapel, six or eight people can easily find space in it, the tree is powerful and healthy ... "
