Inhabitants: 2.600
The little village Neuhofen on the Ybbs
River is the cradle of Austria! In
the year 996 Emperor Otto III gave the bishopric of Freising (Bavaria)
thirty royal hides of land (the equivalent of some 1000 hectares) in
Neuhofen on the Ybbs, together with all that belonged to that land,
including woodland, game reserves and honey-producing flora. This much
can be gleaned from the imperial document if its content is considered
as being confined to the transfer of property. In
this document
the name “Ostarrichi” (Austria) appears for the first time. This
document can be viewed in an exhibition in the new
Ostarrichi-Kulturhof
in Neuhofen/Ybbs.
