About Kaiseraugst

Kaiseraugst is a municipality in the Raisenfeld district in the Canton City of Argou, Switzerland. It is named for the ancient Roman city Augusta Roorica, whose ruins are located nearby. Prefix Caesar- refers to the fact that this city was part of the later Austria, as opposed to neighboring August, which was at Swiss Canton of Basel. Circa 300 AD In the aftermath of the loss of the right edge of Limes Germanicus and Rhine, the Roman army made a fort near the city of Augusta Roorika. The fort, which was named after the Catastram Rourance, whose purpose was to serve as the headquarters of the Legoo I Martia and to protect a thorn on the Rhine.

During the 4th century, the importance of the fort increased because it had ordered a bridge which was along the road from Gaul to Danube. Emperors Constantius II and Julian gathered their armies on the Castro Rourences before marching for a fight against Alumni. After the collapse of the Roman Empire, the fort was captured because the local Germanic tribes went in. The fort and the neighboring church became the seat of a bishop In the 4th century, the first time with Bishop was mentioned in 346. In the 7th century Bishop went to Basel and the importance of the settlement decreased. A village named Agusta was mentioned for the first time in 752, although it was not until 1442 that the Augusta village was split in August and Caesarsag.
