There are various explanations for the origin of the name "Füssen". There is documentary evidence from the 4th century for a Roman military camp called "Foetibus" or "Fotensium" on today's Schlossberg in Füssen. Both names could have been derived from the Latin "fotes" or "fontes" (springs) and refer to the Lech Falls (= spring). Another possible starting point for the development of the name is the documentary mention of the Lech gorge at Lusaltenfelsen (today Lechfall) as "Fauces" (Latin for gorge) in 898.
