The original rotting man was around 2 km further east in what is now the district of St. Georgen. Since (severe waterlogging ) was not possible here due to the geological conditions, a further extension of the settlement, the current location of a German town planner on the debris slopes of the village in the south of the town house the mountain was planned, " Stein am Mandl ". For the protection of trade merchants, which the high traffic salt and Commercial Street - earlier Roman road - sailed, was later than the castle Rottenmann constructed at the beginning of the 12th century and surrounded by walls and ditches.

After rotting man had been occupied in 1251 by Salzburgian troops, this happened again in 1292, when the Styrian nobility collar - with Salzburg and Bavaria allied - against Duke Albrecht I rebelled. Soon after - in 1320 - was for the Prince proven loyalty confirms the municipal law while rotting man also received extremely important and lucrative trade, market and legal freedoms; particularly the right of iron and salt loss and the high income from the nearby silver mines of Oppenberg and on Dietmannsdorf mountain made ​​the Rottenmanner citizens quickly wealthy.

The pin but no really great future was bestowed, especially during the Reformation it had to suffer severely. Emperor Joseph II finally lifted the pin 1785. The pin rule rotting man was later acquired by the iron trades Pesendorfer, later by Max Ritter von Gutmann, who resold to the German Reich to the industrialist Flick in the course of the connection of Austria.

16th to 18th century

The 16th century was characterized by the spread of Lutheranism and the resulting conflicts and unrest. The Barons Hoffmann proved to be significant sponsors of the new faith, and soon dominated the entire Paltental and areas beyond. In the course of the subsequent Counter-Reformation a Reform Commission was sent to rotting man on instruction of the Reigning Prince on November 15, 1599 - two days later which was built only 20 years ago, evangelical Salvator church was laid in ruins. Due to the migration Lutheran minded Rottenmann counted in 1612 only 116 citizens, whereby only those residents designated at this time as citizens who could prove a house property within the city walls.

The name Rottenmann

Rottenmann originally has four names. On the wall of counseling hall of the Town Hall are four names: Tartusana, Stiriate, Castra Montana and Cirminah. The actual name " rotting man " has many meanings and many legends. A story says that there was a dragon slayer, who was called by the blood of the dragon " Red Man ". More likely is the possibility that the name " rotting man " is not due to this legend, but the legend is based on the place name. Much more credible sounding statement that " rotting man " normally " Rotenman ", should read. The double notation is due to many poets and writers who simply decorated the names with double letters. " Rotenman " would even so much as say " The border at the bottom ." ( Red back then meant swamp, the green border. ) A fairly credible explanation, considering that the entire Paltental after the melting of the glacier Ennstaler was a pure swamp. The name Rottenburg man has just many meanings. Some are due to a mystical way, other. Purely linguistic or historical basis or simply to " ornaments " or former spellings
