history

Probably as early as the end of the 14th century Unterau was the 1st Gnotschaft district of the "Ur gnotschaft " Au in Berchtesgadener Land , which from 1380 formed the heartland of the Reich Prelature Berchtesgaden and the later independent, imperial provostory Berchtesgaden (1559-1803). After three changes of rulership in quick succession, in 1810 the Berchtesgadener Land with its Gnotships was annexed to the Kingdom of Bavaria and Au became a municipality from 1812 . Unterau remained part of the municipality of Au until December 31, 1971 , which only lost its independence in the course of the regional reform in Bavaria on January 1, 1972 and became a district of Berchtesgaden . Since then Unterau has been a district or a Gnotschaft of the Berchtesgaden market.

At the beginning of the 20th century there was only a connection to the public transport network in the Unterau with the stop Au bei Berchtesgaden of the local railway Berchtesgaden – Hangender Stein (1908 to 1938), so that the ascent to the Oberau could still be managed on foot . The Gartenau hydropower plant was built between 1907 and 1908 to operate this local electric railway , for which the Berchtesgadener Ache river arch was cut off by an approximately 550-meter-long canal just before the municipal border with Marktschellenberg . On the "island" formed thanks to the Ache and the canal, the Gartenau industrial area was later set up together with the power station . The Unterau and the higher-lying gnotships of the Au did not experience an expansion of the public transport network until 1929 with the establishment of a postal service to and from Berchtesgaden. The traffic then became comparatively lively from 1938 with the start of construction on Kehlsteinstrasse and Roßfeldhöhenringstrasse , whose "ring" is now closed with the help of the BGL 9 district road in Oberau and a section of the federal road 319 (Oberau - Landau - Klaushöhe).

At the last census of May 25, 1987 Unterau had a population of 168 in 51 buildings with living space or 78 residential units. At the 1875 census there were 233 residents in 86 buildings.
