    The 16th century was marked by peasant revolts. Officially, these revolts were "religious wars," but the root cause of the Upper Austrian peasant uprisings of 1525 and 1595 lay in the catastrophic economic conditions triggered by the increase in corvée labor (work for the lord of the manor) and the ever-rising tithes (taxes) levied by both ecclesiastical and secular landowners.

    From 1595 to 1597, peasant revolts repeatedly broke out, originating in St. Peter and Niederwaldkirchen.

    The peasant revolts ended in 1597 (St. Peter was forced to swear an oath of submission on July 18, 1597).
