New stamp issue – Austria: 800 Anniversary of the Town of Enns
Enns is a city in the Austrian state of Upper Austria, located 281 m above sea level on the river Enns, which forms the border with the state of Lower Austria. Enns was one of the first places in Austria to receive town privileges. The town charter dates to April 22, 1212, the document is displayed at the local museum. The date is also depicted at the City Tower, the landmark of Enns.
As Leopold VI, Duke of Austria, endowed Enns with town privileges in 1212, it is now considered Austria’s oldest town (apart from the Roman municipal status). The landmark of Enns, the City Tower on the Main Square, was erected between 1564 and 1568 as a bell tower, watch and clock tower. the attachments to this post:
