Enns Attractions

Some 5km/3mi up the Enns, on the site of the Roman fort of Lauriacum, lies the town of Enns (280m/900ft; pop. 10,000). Under the Gothic church of St Lawrence (13th C.) were found remains of the Roman Capitol, an Early Christian basilica and a Carolingian church. In the main square stand the Stadtturm (1564-68), 59m/194ft high, the old Rathaus (1547), now housing the Municipal Museum, and, to the north, Schloss Ennsegg (16th- 17th C.). The parish church of St Mary has a Gothic cloister.
