In the 1880s, a national conflict began to unfold, primarily concerning the language issue in schools, government offices, courts, and political representation. The language spoken by Radkersburg's citizens was generally German. Their servants, however, and the rural population of the surrounding communities downstream of the Mur River predominantly spoke Slovene. The national conflict escalated politically and militarily during the First World War. The town was a garrison town of the Austro-Hungarian Army; in 1914, the second squadron of the 16th Hussar Regiment was stationed here. After the end of the First World War, troops of the SHS (State of Slovenes, Croats, and Serbs) occupied Radkersburg and its surrounding communities on the left bank of the Mur River. The betrayed and failed uprising of the German-speaking population led by Johann Mickl took place on February 4, 1919. SHS troops only evacuated the area in July 1920 in exchange for the Abstall Basin, which was also predominantly German-speaking. The town was divided, and the Oberradkersburg district (Gornja Radgona) on the other, right bank of the Mur became part of Slovenia, or rather, the SHS state. The Peace Treaty of Saint-Germain definitively made Radkersburg a divided border town.
