Ertl is a town in the district of Amstetten in Lower in Austria.
History
In ancient times, the area that is now Ertl was part of the province of Noricum.
The territory was inhabited in the Middle Neolithic period (c. 2500 BC), as evidenced by the discovery of some stone axes, tools, and other artifacts of the period.[2]
The present town was formed in 1922, from portions of the parishes of St. Peter, and Waidhofen. Ertl became an independent parish in 1930.[3]
