) with a view to Lindabrunn, by Leopold Munsch, 1888 During the
Second World War there were several labor camps for the factories in Enzesfeld. The factories were for war production and were often bombed by the
Royal Air Force. In 1944 there was a large explosion in a factory that could be felt as far away as
Wiener Neustadt and cost lives. Shortly before the end of the war, prisoners in the work camps in Enzesfeld were still being murdered by the
SS. The
Soviet Army liberated the communities of Enzesfeld and Lindabrunn. The
NSDAP mayor of Enzesfeld Karl Gschiel flees to
Carinthia and never returns. Shortly after the war, his villa was set on fire by the population and burned down, it was finally demolished. In the post-war period there was a strong
SPÖ in Enzesfeld and Lindabrunn. In the first years even
KPÖ local councils. The city was founded in 1970 from the communities of Enzesfeld and Lindabrunn. Erich Nebel (
SPÖ) ruled until 1985, and Erich Fangl (
SPÖ) until 2010. In 2005, the SPÖ had the greatest success, 19 out of 25 mandates. In the 1990s and 2000s there was a list of citizens with the names: Citizens list Enzesfeld-Lindabrunn. In 2009,
the local Social Democratic party fell out and the
SPÖ municipal council from Lindabrunn founded his list of citizens, Liste Schneider. In the 2010 elections, he was able to bring many
Red voters to his list and the Enzesfeld-Lindabrunn citizens' list merged with the Schneider list. Franz Schneider becomes mayor in 2010. After 2020: The municipal council currently consists of 14 mandates from the List Schneider citizens' list of Mayor Franz Schneider. The opposition is formed by the
SPÖ with 10 mandates from
Karin Scheele, she is also a member of the
Austrian Social Democratic Party in the
Lower Austrian state parliament. The
ÖVP of Deputy Mayor Alexander Schermann has 3 mandates. The
FPÖ had seats in the local council up until the 2020 elections, but has since lost importance and lost most of the voters. This is a follow-up to the
Ibiza affair of 2019. On June 1, 2023, Stefan Rabl was elected mayor. He is the successor of Franz Schneider. ==See also==
