A city in the state of Upper Austria in north-central Austria. Population 39,340 (2001). An iron town that developed at the confluence of the Steyr and Enns rivers, it was already a wealthy city in the state in the 15th century as a shipping point for the iron ore produced in the area. However, it fell into decline when influential citizens relocated after the Counter-Reformation, and it finally recovered in the 19th century with the establishment of an arms factory, and is now the center of the automobile industry. As it is located on a terrace, the historical landscape of the old town has been preserved to this day.

オーストリア中北部、オーバーエスターライヒ州の都市。人口3万9340(2001)。シュタイア川とエンス川の合流点に発達した鉄の町で、この一帯に産する鉄鉱石の積出し地として15世紀にはすでに州内の富裕都市であった。しかし反宗教改革を機に有力な市民たちが移住したため衰微し、19世紀以降、武器工場設立でようやく回復し、現在は自動車工業の中心地となっている。段丘上に立地しているため、旧市街の歴史的景観がいまも保存されている。 [前島郁雄] 出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
