Winzendorf-Muthmannsdorf

Winzendorf-Muthmannsdorf is situated in Lower Austria's industrial zone (Industrieviertel) on the edge of the Steinfeld, also called the Dry Plain, the southern region of the Vienna Basin.

The many caves in the limestone stock of the Hohe Wand as well as in the Fischau Foothills offered people a safe natural refuge.

In the Malleiten area (also Maleiten, Marleiten, Malleitenberg oder Mahleiten), about 7 km northeast in the Fischauer Vorberge near Dreistetten, the oldest finds date back to the 5th millennium BC.

Based on finds from the Roman period, it was possible to reconstruct a network of roads and local traffic routes in the Wiener Neustadt area, which also included the municipality of Winzendorf-Muthmannsdorf.

[5] With the establishment of Christianity in the Roman Empire, this religion, practised only by men in mostly remote places such as caves, disappeared within a few generations.

In addition to the relief slabs,[6] a limestone votivara dedicated to Mithras by a stable master of the 10th Legion was also found in a vineyard.

In the foundation charter for the parish of Waldegg, about 9 km away, a man named "Hiltegrunn de Mutinesdorf" appears as a witness in 1136.
