During the Napoleonic Wars , the place was occupied several times.

The community was founded in 1850. At that time the community name was Thannstetten or Thanstetten . The place with this name is now called Hilbern .

During the First World War , a relatively large number of Jewish refugees from Eastern Europe were housed in the entire Steyr-Land district. In Schiedlberg (then Thanstetten) there was a school for the refugee children.
