== History == [[File:Wien - Pfarrkirche Kaiserebersdorf (2).JPG|thumb|upright|left|Saints Peter and Paul Church in Kaiserebersdorf]] The first indications of the settlement ''Simmering'' are from 1028. A [[brewery]] was built in 1605 and continued to bring in revenue for the area for more than 300 years. Simmering remained small until 1860, when the ''Rinnböckhäuser'' housing development was built, which at the time was the second-largest in Vienna, and resulted in rapid growth in the area. ''Kaiserebersdorf'' (earlier known as ''Ebersdorf'') was one of the original villages in the district and held the residence of the ''Ebendorfer'' dynasty. [[Holy Roman Empire|Holy Roman Emperor]] [[Maximilian II, Holy Roman Emperor|Maximilian II]] hunted frequently in the area and converted the residence into the hunting lodge [[Schloss Neugebäude]]. On January 1, 1892, Simmering, Kaiserebersdorf, and some very small parts of [[Kledering]], [[Schwechat]], and Albern were incorporated into Vienna as the 11th district. The first indications of the small town of ''Albern'' originate from 1162. The town was small throughout its history. It had to be moved and resettled twice due to flooding from the [[Danube]]. On October 15, 1938, the town was moved to the former 23rd district of Schwechat. But after [[World War II]], it was moved to the 2nd district [[Leopoldstadt]] so that its [[refineries]] would belong to the Soviet-occupied quarter of Vienna. In 1955, in the [[Austrian State Treaty]] it became part of Simmering.
