contents We study fixed subgroups of automorphisms of any large-type Artin group $A_Γ$. We define a natural subgroup $\mathrm{Aut}_Γ(A_Γ)$ of $\mathrm{Aut}(A_Γ)$, and for every $γ\in \mathrm{Aut}_Γ(A_Γ)$ we find the isomorphism type of $\mathrm{Fix}(γ)$ and a generating set for a finite index subgroup. We show that $\mathrm{Fix}(γ)$ is a finitely generated Artin group, with a uniform bound on the rank in terms of the number of vertices of $Γ$. Finally, we provide a natural geometric characterisation of the subgroup $\mathrm{Aut}_Γ(A_Γ)$, which informally is the maximal subgroup of $\mathrm{Aut}(A_Γ)$ leaving the Deligne complex of $A_Γ$ invariant.
