Historical background
ALSACE - TOWN OF THANN
(16th century-1624)
After the extinction of the county house of Thann, the city passed into the hands of the dukes of the house of Austria. The right to mint coins was granted in 1387 to Thann by the Duke of Austria Albert III. It is probably only from 1448 that the city minted coins in its own name. The Thann workshop, which had become unprofitable, closed in 1565. It reopened again in 1623, before closing definitively the following year..
