Many cities with outstanding architectural heritage have a similar story to tell: it usually involved a period of economic prosperity and wide-spread building activities followed by a quick crisis that forced the place to "freeze" for a long period of time, thereby preserving the historic buildings. Freistadt was a hub for salt trade from the Salzkammergut, connecting Austria with Bohemia and the lands beyond. With the people in the region of Bohemia as a traditional thread, the Babenberg and later Habsburg rulers of Austria made the city a centre for the border defence. Founded in 1220, the city was endowed with loads of privileges in order to make it bloom and flourish, including rights in taxation, holding markets and regulating through fare.
