A LITTLE HISTORY ...

In 1242 Provost Heinrich from Schlägl Monastery called on 21 families to build a settlement on the monastery grounds.

In 1362 Aigen was granted market town rights.

In 1585, 1802 and 1852 the town completely burnt down in fires.

A new market system was introduced in 1599 which helped Aigen become an important trading town in the region.

In 1708 the people were given the right to advocate a market judge (mayor and judge in one person). The people were freed from the robot and heriot systems. The heriot was the right of a lord in feudal Europe to seize a serf's second best ox upon his death, or his second best cow upon his wife's death.

The new church, which was built in 1901, changed the overall appearance of the town.

Summer tourism started in Aigen around 1970. Meanwhile the town has developed in the region’s main tourist destinations.
