St. Oswald bei Haslach

St. Oswald bei Haslach, Oberösterreich, Österreich
St. Oswald near Haslach in the Bohemian Forest holiday region! Here in St. Oswald bei Haslach, it can happen that the wind whistles around your ears when you set off on one of the winter hiking trails.

The parish church of St. Oswald bei Haslach is well worth a visit. It is looked after by canons of Schlägl Abbey and can be seen from afar. The high altar by Josef Keplinger from Ottenheim in 1894 is particularly worth seeing.

History:

St. Oswald was first mentioned in a document in 1277. Wittigo von Krumau bequeathed three villages to Hohenfurt Abbey on his deathbed in the presence of the priests Prebislaus von Friedberg and Christian von St. Oswaldi. The deeds were probably signed at Wittinghausen Castle, which may prove the presence of the pastors of the neighbouring parishes. St Oswald was probably already a parish around this time. The reclamation up to Aigen seems to have taken place in the 12th century. St Oswald and the surrounding villages were created on the land cleared by the Blankenberger-Wittigonen-Rosenberger. They originated from "wild roots", i.e. the clearers once cut them out of the forest. The place names Schwackerreith, Damreith, Günterreith (reith - to clear), the cultivated strips, field names and the village well are evidence of this.
