History

Шаблон:Unsourced The earliest surviving record of Bruck dates from the time of King Ludovicus II "Germanicus", when it was identified, in a record dated 20 November 860, as "ad pruccam", a manor of the archbishopric of Salzburg. The settlement then identified with this name was in the location currently occupied by the suburb now called "St. Ruprecht". The settlement then located at what is now the centre of Bruck is identified in the ninth century record as "muorica kimundi" (i.e. the mouth of the Mürz).

The town was refounded in 1263 by King Otakar II of Bohemia, who was responsible for surrounding Bruck with its city walls. Bruck received its town privileges in 1277 from King Rudolph von Habsburg who in 1273 succeeded Otakar. Bruck an der Mur was an important medieval trade center specializing in iron work.

Main sights

Шаблон:Moresources The Heiligen-Geist-Kapelle is a 15th-century Gothic chapel, which is of a unique design. The floor plan is an equilateral triangle in honor of the Trinity.[1] This church was completely restored as much as possible to its original appearance, reopening in 2020.[2]

In the centre, there is also the famous Kornmesser house, built in the Venetian style by Pankraz Kornmess in the 15th century.

The castle of Landskron burned down in the great fire of 1792. After that fire, just two of 166 houses were left standing.

The Grüner See (Green Lake) located in the neighboring municipality of Tragöß-Sankt Katharein is one of the main tourist attractions of the region.
