history

In 1837 Franz Xaver Schweickhardt wrote in his historical-topographical descriptions that the group was 7½  hours away from the nearest post office (St. Pölten) and 2 hours from Frankenfels. The houses were scattered for over half an hour. It can also be seen that the squad belonged to the military district of Line Infantry Regiment No. 49 . The number of souls was 13 families, 37 males and 36 females as well as 2 school-age children. Among the residents were "well donated" forest farmers who - explicitly mentioned: "very good" cattle breeding and some arable farming (grain and oats) and fruit growing for their own use. The number of livestock was 3 horses, 40 oxen, 34 cows, 72 sheep and 36 pigs, which was good for 13 families. The climate "is rough but healthy, the water is particularly good". The hunt, a property of the Kirchberg an der Pielach rulership , provided big game .

Until the abolition of serfdom in 1848 , the group was largely managed by the manorial Maierhof of Weißenburg Castle. Rotthaus was the Groß-Wies homestead (No. 7).

In the 19th century Wiesrotte was also called Schmieddorf because of the mountain smithy (house number 1) .

The newly built Spiellauben chapel at the consecration on August 15, 2017. In 1907, a chapel was built at this location for the first time.

In 1907 a chapel was built near the Spiellaube homestead. It was renewed in 2017 and blessed again on August 15, 2017.

Around 1930, the local council discussed building a school in Weißenbachtal.

House and field names

There are currently twelve houses in the Wiesrotte that have a house name .

(The origin of the word is given in brackets)
  • Wiesrotte 1: Bergschmiede (hammer smith)
  • Wiesrotte 2: pile of stones (grotty ground)
  • Wiesrotte 3: Berg (hill, locally also called Beri )
  • Wiesrotte 4: Fire place ( slash and burn or unwanted fire)
  • Wiesrotte 5: Gstetten (place or inclined surface)
  • Wiesrotte 6: Spiellaube (arbor and place for social gatherings)
  • Wiesrotte 7: Groß-Wies (meadow)
  • Wiesrotte 8: Klein-Wies
  • Pointed rotting 9: dog tree level (Plane place in the forest with dog trees that are Dirndlstrach , buckthorn , buckthorn , honeysuckle and others)
  • Wiesrotte 10: Mühlbauer (Mautmühle)
  • Wiesrotte 11: Nothäusl (location on a little water-bearing brook)
  • Wiesrotte 12: Winkl (location at the end of the valley, in the last corner)

There was also a house called Sternreit , which was taken over by the play arena. The house name has been preserved as a field name in the population. Due to the often identical or relatively rapidly changing surnames of the inhabitants still are quite meadow rotting and throughout rural Vulgonamen usual.

The following saying is still known today: The Weißenbach begins in misery and ends in need . Meant are the houses Elendgarten ( Weißenburg region 15) and Not (Wiesrotte 11, that is near Winkl).

economy

In addition to agriculture and forestry, other businesses were also operated in the Wiesrotte. A hammer smith practiced his trade in Wiesrotte 1. Today there are only agricultural and forestry holdings.

Culture and sights

The houses belong to the parish of Plankenstein (municipality of Texingtal). Because of the long distance to the Frankenfels elementary school, the children attended the school in Plankenstein. The bond with Plankenstein is still evident today in the regular church visits to Plankenstein.

Between the Brandstatt and the Spiellaube there is a cross, which is supposed to remind of an old Bruckmühler from Falkensteinrotte 12, who had an accident here.

Personalities

  • Johannes Fahrngruber (1845–1901), professor of theology, local researcher, art historian and founder of the St. Pölten Diocesan Museum, descended from the Bergschmiede (Wiesrotte 1).
