Archaeological findings in the hamlet of Gurina denote a settlement since the age of the Hallstatt culture, when the local Celtic population ran copper smelting facilities to coin mints. It became one of the first Roman cities in present-day Austria, when the area was part of the Noricum province.

Remains of Roman temple were revealed during excavations in 1884. Today there is a reconstructed Gallo-Roman temple.
