Duchy of Carinthia
The settlement in the Duchy of Carinthia was first mentioned in a 1253 deed together with "Lewenburg" castle, present-day Wasserleonburg, then a fief of the Prince-Bishops of Bamberg. The area was devastated in the 1348 Friuli earthquake, which caused a massive landslide at Mt. Dobratsch and a flood of the Gail river.
