Amstetten is a town in Lower Austria, Austria, in the historical region of Mostviertel. It is the capital of a separate Amstetten district.
There are traces of human settlements from Stone Age and Bronze Age in the area. The first permanent settlement in the area to be mentioned in written sources was Ulmerfeld, mentioned in 995. The first mention of Amstetten itself is dated to 1111. In 1858 the town was linked with the rest of the Austria-Hungary by a rail road. Since 1868 it is also a seat of the local district administration. During the World War II Amstetten was a seat of two sub-camps of the Mauthausen-Gusen concentration camp.[1]
