history

Trostberg in the 18th century (engraving by Michael Wening )

Archaeological finds show that the history of the settlement dates back to the Stone, Bronze and Iron Ages. However, the first documentary evidence of the successful establishment of "Trospergs" by the Counts of Ortenburg-Kraiburg has only been available since 1233. The place developed under the protection of its early 13th century castle ( Trostberg Castle ). In 1301/7 the court (and the county) was named Trostberg in a ducal land register. Since then, Trostberg has always been owned by the Bavarian Wittelsbachers , the Alz was the border river between Bavaria and Salzburg. It was not so much the arable bourgeoisie, but rather trade and handicraft, and especially cloth making, that helped the city to prosper in the 17th and 18th centuries.

The district court of Trostberg , which comprised the northern part of today's district of Traunstein, was dissolved in 1799 and only restructured in 1803. The district courts of Kling and Trostberg were merged. In 1810 Trostberg lost its border location, until then Trostberg was closed in the west and east by towers and divided by the Mittertor between Hauptstrasse 1 and 2. In 1862 the district office (later district) Traunstein was founded, which administratively comprised the district court districts of Traunstein and Trostberg. In the early 20th century who spots Trostberg two Catholic churches, a sawmill , a Kunstmühle and was the seat of a district court .

In 1913 Trostberg was granted city rights. The towns of Heiligkreuz and Lindach, which belong to the city, belonged to the state of Salzburg until 1816 and are therefore part of the Rupertiwinkel .

Trostberg was also bombed during World War II, mainly because of its importance as an industrial location. From 1476, a medieval leprosy can be found in Trostberg , which was located between today's main road and the Au. The field name "Siechenanger" later indicated the Leprosorium.
