Neuhaus is a Croatian village founded in the sixteenth century, the time the first settlers arrived. According to tradition, the settlers came from a farmstead between Kirchfidisch and Deutsch Schützen-Eisenberg. The original name was Dobrava from which the Hungarian names Dobra and Őridobra are derived. The German name Neuhaus came from the subsequent German settlers. According to a 1852 document the school was made of wood then, it was rebuilt in 1870.

After the canonical visitation in 1760, a chapel and a nearby bell tower were built in 1836, dedicated to St. Anthony. Mayor Ferdinand Obojkovics ordered a new church built in the mid 1900s. In the course of a local government reform, the former municipalities communities Mischendorf, Kotezicken, Kleinbachselten, Großbachselten, Rohrbach an der Teich and Neuhaus were merged to the present municipality Mischendorf.

Famous quotes containing the word data:

    This city is neither a jungle nor the moon.... In long shot: a cosmic smudge, a conglomerate of bleeding energies. Close up, it is a fairly legible printed circuit, a transistorized labyrinth of beastly tracks, a data bank for asthmatic voice-prints.
    Susan Sontag (b. 1933)

    To write it, it took three months; to conceive it three minutes; to collect the data in it—all my life.
    F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)
