As part of the municipal structural reform in Styria , it was merged with the municipalities of Sankt Nikolai ob Draßling and Sankt Veit am Vogau (both in the Leibnitz district) on January 1, 2015 . The new municipality bears the name Sankt Veit in southern Styria . The basis for this was a joint application from these communities.
Likewise, with effect from January 1, 2015, the judicial districts were redefined in the “District Courts Ordinance Styria 2015” due to the changes in the framework of the municipal structural reform in Styria . Therefore, the former municipality has been in the Leibnitz judicial district since 2015 .
