15 Best Things to Do in Linz (Austria)


#Linz is a beautiful and sometimes underrated city located in the northern part of #Austria on the River Danube. The great combination of historical buildings, stunning architecture, vast areas of green space, and modern innovations mean that Linz has as much to offer as such high-ranking Austrian cities as Vienna and Salzburg.

Linz is remarkable for possessing a sizable "Altstadt" (old town), for featuring a rich cultural life with numerous museums and festivals, for being situated in an attractive landscape characterised by the Danube and delightful hills, while it is at the same time an economically vibrant and busy industrial city with huge steel and chemical works.

Höhenrausch is an extraordinary culture and art project by the city of Linz that was created with the aim of combining thematic exhibitions with an adventurous tour on the city’s rooftops. For the fifth year in a row, local and international artists are invited to approach a new theme in innovative and interactive ways. This year, ‘The Secret of the Birds’ welcomes guests into the fascinating world of these versatile creatures. From flight simulators and birdcall imitations to behavioural sciences – this interactive exhibition proves to be an enriching experience for both young and old.

An integral part of Linz’s culture since 1371, K & K Hofbäckerei is one of the oldest and most traditional bakeries in the whole of Austria. Today’s owner is master baker in the fifth generation and is keeping his family’s heritage and well-kept family recipes alive. The bakery is renowned for its famous linzer torte – a nut and jam layered cake that is considered one of the oldest cakes in the world. K & K Hofbäckerei not only invites visitors to taste this delicous pastry, but to participate in the baking process and find out first-hand what makes the linzer torte so special.


Pöstlingberg, a 539 metre high mountain on the left bank of the Danube River, offers a breathtaking view of the whole city of Linz. Visitors can either hike up to the panorama viewing platform and the adjacent pilgrimage basilica or take the Pöstlingberg tram to the top. The tram, which has been operating for over 100 years, now has a direct connection between the city’s main square and Pöstlingberg. Halfway up the mountain, there is also the Linz Zoological Garden that is not only home to 600 species but also gives guests even more time to enjoy the amazing view and nature around.

Linz has at least one festival for every season: Linz Fest and Crossing Europe Film Festival in the spring, Bubbledays and Pflasterspektakel in the summer, and Ars Electronica Festival in addition to Linzer Klangwolke in autumn. With Crossing Europe Film Festival, Linz showcases the most outstanding representatives of contemporary and socio-political cinema from all over Europe. Meanwhile, Linz also has innovative street art at Pflasterspektakel, and hip live music paired with the Red Bull wakeboard competition, Waves of Steel at Bubbledays. With so much happening in Linz, festivals are a must for every visitor.

The Mariendom is the largest church in Austria with a capacity of 20,000 people. Although largest, it is only the second highest Austrian church, as it was forbidden under the Austro-Hungarian Empire to build buildings that were higher than Vienna’s St. Stephen’s Cathedral. Especially impressive are the cathedral’s glass-stained windows, such as the Linz Window or the Emperor Window. In 2009, the extraordinary project, Tower eremite, was created, which gives visitors the opportunity to live eight days in complete silence and solitude in the cathedral’s tower.
