On January 1, 2006 Engis had a total population of 5,686. The total area is 27.74 km which gives a population density of 205 inhabitants per km . It is in this village that in 1829 the first Neanderthal er skulls were discovered by Philippe Charles Schmerling , prior to the official discovery in the Neanderthal, Germany Neander Valley in 1856. In late 1930 and early 1931, several thousand cases of acute pulmonary attacks occurred in the Meuse valley, centered on Engis, and 60 people died. A commission of inquiry set up by the Belgian government concluded that the cause was poisonous waste gases, primarily sulfur dioxide, emitted by the many factories in the valley and the furnaces used by the population, in conjunction with unusual climatic conditions coupled with the unique topographic characteristics of the area. ref Mage, J., and Batta, G.

Orphan date February 2009 Johann Hermann Janssens b. at Maaseik , present day Netherlands , 7 December 1783 d. at Engis , 23 May 1853 was a Belgian Roman Catholic theologian. Life After completing his theological studies in Rome he was appointed professor in the College of Fribourg , Switzerland, in 1809. From 1816 he was professor of Scripture and dogmatic theology in the ecclesiastical seminary of Li ge . His teaching in this institution was taxed with heterodoxy, and in 1823 he was removed and made pastor of Engis. Shortly afterward, and against the will of his ecclesiastical superiors, he accepted the chair of anthropology and metaphysics in the philosophical college of the Catholic University of Leuven . He retained this position until the Revolution of 1830, when the college was suppressed. Works His international reputation rested mainly on his first publication, Hermeneutica Sacra seu Introductio in omnes et singulos libros sacros Veteris et Novi Foederis. Published in 1818, it was written during his time at Fribourg. A French translation of this work, the original of which had reached its nineteenth edition in 1897, was published by Pacaud as early as 1828. A fifth edition of this translation, edited by Glaire and Sionnet, was published in Paris in 1855. In retirement at Engis, he composed a history of the Netherlands 3 vols., Li ge, 1840 , written from a Protestant standpoint.
