Historic city centre of Enns

The houses in the old town centre are mostly from the 15th and 16th centuries with impressive façades and idyllic courtyards.

The close observer is presented with lovingly preserved details in Gothic door and window panelling, Renaissance scraped plaster ornamentation, magnificent Baroque stucco and friezes from the Wilhelminian era.

This gives the impression that Enns is a unique portrait of past stylistic epochs. Ennsegg Castle and the towering, 60 metre high, free-standing 16th century town tower in the middle of the main square are impressive.

Historical sites such as the Lauriacum Museum - the Roman Central Museum or the Basilica of St. Laurenz harmonise in a special way. Laurenz harmonise in a special way with modern city life. In the centre of the "City of Towers" stands the landmark of Enns: the free-standing city tower, which not only invites you to visit, but is also the starting point for many discoveries!

Basilica St. Laurenz

The Gothic basilica from the 13th century is an impressive place of worship whose history stretches back 1800 years. Unique excavations and finds from Roman times and early Christianity below the basilica reveal the legacy of a history in which not only Roman governors and commanders play a role, but also St. Florian and St. Severin, who left their mark on this place.

Enns

Entdecken Sie die älteste Stadt Österreichs, die Römerzeit, das Mittelalter und die neue Cittàslow.

Enns begeistert seine Besucher mit einer Vielzahl an Sehenswürdigkeiten. Erklimmen Sie den alles überragenden 60 m hohen freistehenden Stadtturm aus dem 16. Jhdt. Besuchen Sie das neu renovierte Schloss Ennsegg oder eine der vielen historischen Kirchen wie die Stadtpfarrkirche St. Marien mit der Wallseerkapelle, die Basilika St. Laurenz oder die evangelische Stadtpfarrkirche. 2018 findet die Oberösterreichische Landesausstellung „Die Rückkehr der Legion“ zum römischen Erbe in Oberösterreich in Enns, Schlögen und Oberranna statt.

Johanniter Chapel

The basement of the tower has large stone blocks that are similar to the lower zone of the tower of St Laurence's Basilica.

It can therefore not be ruled out that these are stones from the destroyed Lauriacum.

The tower has raised crosses in the plaster on the south and north sides, which are interpreted by researchers as St John's crosses.

The Wallseer family, who received the Burghut, court and toll at Enns as a pledge from the sovereign in 1309, built a pilgrims' hospice in Enns between 1326 and 1338. It consisted of the hospice and the chapel in the Frauenturm tower. At the time, Enns was located on the European Way of St James, which travelled from Gdansk via Prague and Freistadt, continuing westwards from Enns through Switzerland, France and the north of Spain to Santiago de Compostela.

The chapel can be reached via a staircase on the outside of the tower, which is typical of a St John's hospice. (Visit during the city tours, otherwise you can get a key for 15 minutes from the tourist information centre). The interior impresses with its wall paintings in mixed technique, which are attributed to the St Florian school of painting and dated between 1320 and 1360. The Gothic vault has a blue, starry sky, cross ribs decorated in different colours with a keystone. The south wall: St Laurentius, patron saint of the poor and needy, to the left of the window. First figure to the right of the window: St Dorothea, patron saint of gardeners, newlyweds and women in labour. She carries a basket of apples and roses as an attribute. Second figure: St Martha of Bethany, patron saint of housewives, cooks and maids. Her attribute is the dragon Tarascus, which, according to legend, she defeated in the Rhone Valley with a cross and holy water and carried to Arles on her belt.

The east wall: Eight scenes of the Passion and Resurrection of Jesus arranged in three rows one above the other. However, the chronologically last event (resurrection) of the cycle is placed at the top. Symbolic meaning: Victory over suffering and death through the Saviour. The individual pictures show the following scenes: Resurrection, the prayer on the Mount of Olives, Judas' betrayal, Christ before Pilate, the scourging of Christ, the carrying of the cross, the crucifixion and the descent from the cross.

The north wall: Christ crucified on the tree of life. The branches form numerous medallions containing small bust portraits, probably of prophets and ancestors of Christ.

The west wall: numerous, poorly preserved medallions with bust portraits of unknown persons (depictions of saints?).

Ennsegg Castle

In the northern area of the town hill the 1st sovereign or ducal castle (stone building) was built around 1100. When this was equally dilapidated, the castle Ennsegg was built instead .
The newly renovated castle with the castle park invites you to admire and relax. It was built in 1569/70 by the imperial councillor Dr Gienger and was extended in the 17th century by baroque additions.

After the Battle of Ebelsberg Napoleon was quartered in the castle. From there he observed the reconstruction of the destroyed Enns Bridge. Even today this view is called "Napoleon view".

Today, what many dream of has become reality - the wedding in the castle. Thus, wedding couples can not only say "I do" in a civil ceremony in the historic "Bilderzimmer", but also tie the knot in church in the castle chapel. In addition, beautiful rooms such as the "Georgenberg" hall, the "Auersperg" hall, the "Napoleon" hall or an old vault in the castle are available for subsequent celebrations.

**Vis-à-vis users**

1\. The tours presented for hiking, walking, biking and road biking, mountain biking, motorbiking, horseback riding, climbing, cross-country skiing, and going on skiing and snowshoe tours etc. are to be considered non-paid tour recommendations and only serve as non-binding information. We have no intention of concluding a contract with the users of this website. The utilisation of the data does not lead to the establishment of a contract with us.

The data may only be used for private use; any commercial use is prohibited. In particular, it is not permissible to offer the data on commercially run websites, file-sharing platforms etc. or to use it to develop commercial products. Downloading data does not imply that users are granted rights to the data concerned.

The tour recommendations posted were created with utmost care; nevertheless, we assume no liability for the correctness and completeness of the information.

We point out that neither the tour recommendations included on this website nor the associated data and information were posted by us, but rather by third parties (Art. 16 Austrian E-Commerce Act). We have no influence on whether the details provided (e.g. distance, level of difficulty, change in altitude, description etc.) are authentic, correct and complete. We do not review these third-party contents. For this reason, we assume no liability for the authenticity, correctness and completeness of the information.

Construction-related measures or other influences (e.g. landslides and similar occurrences) can lead to temporary or permanent changes in a route (e.g. loss of a bridge and similar occurrences). Such occurrences can lead to part of the route or the entire route becoming impassable.

The use of the data as well as undertaking (riding, walking, taking etc.) the recommended tours or using the network of paths occurs at users’ own risk and on their authority. In particular, users themselves are responsible for the choice of route, outdoor orientation, adherence to traffic rules, supplies and equipment for tours listed in Point 1 (e.g. bicycle etc.), wearing a helmet, estimating their own fitness, recognising dangers and maintaining an appropriate velocity. We exclude ourselves from any liability whatsoever for damages, in particular accidents, that occur whilst taking part in the recommended tours.

2.Some of the tours lead over roads with normal traffic conditions. Please observe that there is an increased risk which can be avoided by means of appropriate attention and proper estimation and implementation of one’s own abilities. For this reason, please travel a route that is unfamiliar to you slowly and with special care. Pay constant attention to potential dangers and always observe traffic. Do not leave the routes featured in descriptions.

The potential use of private roads, in particular forestry roads and agricultural transport roads, can be subject to legal restrictions, which must be observed and adhered to.

The normal traffic rules apply. Each user (e.g. biker, motorbiker) is responsible for adhering to these rules and maintaining his/her bike/vehicle and its equipment (lights, brakes etc.) in good working order. Each user is also responsible for ensuring that he/she rides at a velocity that is appropriate for the conditions and his/her skill level and for maintaining sufficient distance to the rider in front. We explicitly recommend adjusting velocity to correspond to the respective field of vision, wearing a helmet, using reflective clothing (or similar) and employing bicycle lights in line with regulations.

3.Each tour requires good physical fitness as well as detailed planning. We explicitly recommend only taking the tours in the case of optimal healthiness.

We recommend that you conclude an accident and liability insurance policy. Use an onboard computer that displays the respective kilometres travelled per day and is calibrated for the front wheel.

4.Special for mountain bikers – Fair-play rules:

Mountain biking is one of the most wonderful outdoor leisure-time activities. Whilst biking or on a mountain biking tour, mountains and lakes, meadows and cabins are re-discovered in new ways. A couple of rules for fair play in the forest help to avoid conflicts whilst mountain biking.

a.Pedestrians have the right of way: We are accommodating and friendly to pedestrians and hikers. Upon encountering these fellow travellers, we alert them by using the bicycle bell and slowly overtake them. We avoid paths with heavy pedestrian traffic altogether. Take nature into account: We do not leave refuse behind.

b.The braking distance should be half of the total distance visible: We ride at a controlled pace, are ready to brake and maintain a braking distance half as long as the total distance visible, especially in curves, because we always have to count on obstacles on the path. Damage to the path, stones, branches, wood piles, grazing livestock, cattle grids, barriers, tractor-type forestry machines and authorised vehicles pose dangers that we need to be ready for.

c.Don’t drink and drive!: Do not drink alcohol when mountain biking. Take care at stop-off points (dealing with bike racks, dirty shoes or clothing).

It is obligatory to provide first aid!

d.Marked routes, closed paths and blockades: Keep to the marked routes, observe the blockades and accept that these roads are primarily for agricultural and forestry use!

Blockades can often not be avoided and are in your own interest. Biking beyond the intended path and outside of opening times is punishable and turns us into illegal bikers.

e.We are guests in the forest and behave accordingly, including vis-à-vis forestry and hunting staff. Whilst mountain biking, mobile telephones and music players are forbidden! Biking requires your full attention.

f.Avoid unnecessary noise. Out of consideration to the animals living in the wild, we only bike during full daylight. As a principle, we always wear our helmet (even when riding uphill)! Don’t forget emergency supplies: We always have a repair set and bandages along.

g.Don’t overestimate your skills: We should not overdo it when it comes to biking technique and physical fitness. Take the level of difficulty posed by the route into consideration and make a precise estimate of your experience and skills as a biker (braking, bell, lights)!

h.Close gates: We approach grazing livestock at a walking pace and close every gate behind us. We should avoid causing escape and panic reactions in the animals. Nothing stands in the way of the fun and athletic challenge in the mountains and forests!

i.Traffic rules: The general traffic rules (StVO) apply for all the mountain biking routes and we adhere to them. Our bike therefore needs to be in perfect technical condition and equipped in line with the traffic rules, including brakes, a bell and lights. We inspect and service our mountain bikes regularly anyway.
