The municipality, Sankt Veit in der Südsteiermark, was created as part of the Styria municipal structural reform,[3] at the end of 2014, by merging the former towns Sankt Veit am Vogau and Sankt Nikolai ob Draßling, both in the political district Leibnitz, plus the town Weinburg am Saßbach in the political Südoststeiermark District.[4]

The borders of the Südoststeiermark District and Leibnitz District were shifted, so that the new municipality would lie completely within Leibnitz District.[5]

The former municipality Weinburg am Saßbach was until the end of 2012 in Radkersburg District and had the Kfz-code "RA". From the middle of 2013 until the end of 2014, the code had abbreviation "SO"; in 2015 it was set as "LB".

Josef Pratter, the nearly 25-year mayor of St. Nikolai ob Draßling, was and the former mayor of the municipality of Weinburg am Saßbach, Susanne Lucchesi-Palli, came to the election.[8]

With the results from April 30, 2015, Manfred Tatzl traveled by his council mandate, because he wants to conduct the business of the merged municipality as a "People's Mayor". [7]
