Hausham was created from the town ofAgatharied on 27 April 1922. This was due to Hausham's growth through coal mining.
The firstbrown coal mine was opened in 1860 but couldn't compete with the cheaper fossil oil and mineral coal and closed 106 years later in 1966.
DuringWorld War II, Hausham was the location of two subcamps of theDachau concentration camp, one for men and one for women.[3] On 29 April 1945, Hausham was captured by American troops.[3]
