About Linz
Linz is the capital of Upper Austria, set on the Danube, with just under 215,000 residents listed in official city statistics as of 1 January 2026. You come for the contrast: Hauptplatz and the Old Town, the Ars Electronica Center, Lentos on the riverfront, Tabakfabrik’s creative-industry spaces and the hill ride up to Pöstlingberg. It is manageable rather than overwhelming, with enough culture, food and transport convenience for a strong weekend.
