Hengsberg is a municipality in the district of Leibnitz in Styria, in southeast Austria. Hengsberg is situated in the south of Graz at the foothills of the Buchkogel in the district of Leibnitz in the province Styria. Its cadastral subdivisions are Flüssing, Hengsberg, Kehlsdorf, Komberg, Kühberg, Leitersdorf, Matzelsdorf, Schönberg an der Laßnitz, and Schrötten an der Laßnitz. The first historical entry dates back to the year 892 (Hengistburg/Hengistfeldon), which means "castle of Hengist". Hengsberg is considered to be the most probable location for the old "Hengistburg". The Hengistburg was the center of the early Medieval so-called Carinthian Mark. This was at the same time the heart of today's Styria. The exact localisation of the Hengistburg is still one of the major questions of the early Styrian history. The castle was destroyed in the year 1053 by Hungarians. Other possible locations include Graz, St. Margarethen bei Lebring, the castle-hill of Wildon, as well as St. Lorenzen am Hengsberg. But there are several important arguments that "castrum Heingist" was located in Hengsberg. More information...
