About Enns

Enns is a metropolis inside the Austrian nation of Upper Austria at the river Enns, which bureaucracy the border with the state of Lower Austria. Enns turned into one of the first locations in Austria to obtain metropolis privileges. The city constitution dates to 22 April 1212, the document is displayed at the nearby museum. The date is likewise depicted on the Town Tower, the landmark of Enns. The first settlements within the region of the mouth of the Enns river to the Danube date lower back to four,000 years ago. Celts settled the land around four hundred BC. Their kingdom of Noricum became incorporated into the Roman Empire in AD 15 and became detailed as a Roman province under the reign of Emperor Claudius in AD 45.

In the second one and 1/3 century, the Roman camp of Lauriacum, wherein up to 6,000 soldiers were stationed, become positioned at the web site of current Enns. The adjoining settlement obtained the privileges of a municipium in 212 from Emperor Caracalla. At that point approximately 30,000 humans lived right here. During the Diocletian Persecution of Christians, a commander of the Roman army, Saint Florian, died as a martyr at Lauriacum on four May 304, whilst he was drowned within the Enns river. Only nine years later, the Emperor Constantine I proclaimed spiritual tolerance with the Edict of Milan.
