Where people now enjoy leisurely bike rides through Enns, thousands of Romans lived and worked nearly 2,000 years ago. Around the Lauriacum Museum, St. Laurenz Basilica, and the historic lime kilns, history isn’t just told behind glass—it comes to life right there on the spot. And after the tour? At the historic Hotel zum Goldenen Schiff, right next to the Lauriacum Museum, a Roman-style drink called “Cool Citron” or a Roman meat platter awaits—true to the saying: the way to the heart is through the stomach.
