The origins of Roman Feldkirchen reach back to the Augustan age. Very important for the development of the Roman town of Feldkirchen was certainly the advantageous geographical situation at an intersection point of important roads and the possibility to cross the river. The remains of Roman furnaces, the extensive iron slag mounds and the metallurgical examinations carried out by G. Sperl are indicative of a Roman iron production centre. Furthermore, in the surroundings of Feldkirchen we know several inscriptions referring to Roman magistrates concerned with the production of the famous Ferrum Noricum.
