history

Unterbuch is first mentioned in 1329 as inferior Puech , Puech was today's Oberbuch . Like Oberbuch, the village was probably founded in the 12th century by the Hopfau manor on a piece of land belonging to the Aribones . It is a typical line village with a few mountain houses.

The village was probably devastated by the Hungarians in 1418 and by the Turks in 1532 .

In 1558 the village burned down. In 1605 the village was attacked by the Heiducken and burned down.

In the years 1704 and 1707 twice raided the Kuruc the village. In 1712 the village was rebuilt.

In 1849/50, when the local parishes were created after the 1848/49 revolution , Unterbuch was finally merged with Oberbuch to form the municipality of Buch , with the now larger sub- book becoming the capital of the municipality .

Traffic history

The overland road through Safental (Hartberg - Fürstenfeld) had always been an important route, which had favored the development of the town.

In 1891 the continuation of the Fehring – Fürstenfeld local railway to Hartberg was built and opened on October 19 of that year. This gave Buch a train station (today only a stop).

In the 1980s, the south A 2 motorway was built, which cuts through the local area. The construction lot junction (ASt) Hartberg - ASt Ilz-Fürstenfeld (right-hand lane) with an extent of 23 km was opened on December 10, 1983. On October 31, 1989, the left lane followed in the section ASt Hartberg - ASt Sebersdorf – Bad Waltersdorf (the continuation to Ilz could only be released in 1991, the bridge at Bad Waltersdorf even later). The Sebersdorf – Bad Waltersdorf junction of the A 2 near Sebersdorf (exit 126/127) is five kilometers south, the Hartberg junction  (exit 117) 5 km east of Hartberg.

The L 401 Hartbergerstraße ( Lebing / B 54 - Fürstenfeld / B 319 , approx. Km 5.6–6.5) runs parallel through the village .

The thermal railway also runs past the place.
