The town was first mentioned around 810 and received the city statute in 1260, which makes it one of the oldest cities in Austria. It became a fortress and important trading route junction, dealing with the salt trade and with ship traffic on the River Inn. Through its history it changed hands four times. It was Bavarian until 1779 and became an Austrian town under the terms of the treaty of Teschen, which settled the War of the Bavarian Succession. As a major Bavarian city the town played an outstanding role in the Bavarian uprising against the Austrian occupation during the War of the Spanish Succession, when it hosted the Braunau Parliament, a provisional Bavarian Parliament in 1705 headed by Sebastian Plinganser. Again between 1809 and 1816 it was a Bavarian town under the terms of the treaty of Bratislava. In 1816 Bavaria ceded the town to Austria, when Europe was reorganised after the Napoleonic Wars. Ever since then it has been an Austrian city. Bavaria was compensated in advance by the gain of Aschaffenburg.
