Linz Cathedral

Highlight • Religious Site

St. Mary's Cathedral (New Cathedral), Linz
The Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception
The Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception in Linz is a neo-Gothic, Roman Catholic church building, which is also called St. Mary's Cathedral and New Cathedral. The building was commissioned in 1855 by the Bishop of Linz, Franz Joseph Rudigier, in gratitude for the bull Ineffabilis Deus of December 8, 1854.
The foundation stone was laid in 1862, and on May 1, 1924, the cathedral was finally consecrated as St. Mary's Church by Bishop Johannes Maria Gföllner. The building was not completed until 1935, and the cathedral square was redesigned as part of the celebrations for the 150th anniversary of the Diocese of Linz. The cathedral is the largest church in Austria and is around two meters lower than St. Stephen's Cathedral.

Old City Hall Linz

Highlight • Settlement

Old Town Hall, Linz
The Old Town Hall is one of the sights of the Upper Austrian capital Linz. Like many of the buildings in Linz's town hall district and old town district, the building has an arcaded courtyard.
The building in its current form was designed by Master Christoph after the city fire of 1509. The characteristic octagonal town hall tower and some vaulted rooms inside the town hall have been preserved from this building. In 1658/1659, the building was expanded and received its current baroque facade.
During the annexation of Austria to Nazi Germany, Adolf Hitler, who was greeted with cheers by the population in the city of his youth, announced the completion of the so-called annexation in his first speech as German Chancellor on Austrian soil.

Danube Cycle Path 🏭 opposite Linz industrial area

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

From the Danube Cycle Path, an impressive view opens up of the Linz Industrial Park – one of Austria's most important industrial areas and a key economic driver for the city of Linz. Numerous companies, primarily from the chemical and plastics industries, are located here, covering an area of approximately one square kilometer.

Thanks to its excellent transport connections – with direct access to the motorway and rail network as well as the Danube tank port – the chemical park plays a crucial role in the country's industrial infrastructure.

Despite its industrial backdrop, Linz boasts a lovingly preserved old town, modern cultural offerings, and superb cycle paths along the Danube. This section of the Danube Cycle Path only briefly passes by the industrial facilities, but offers a fascinating contrast between nature, technology, and urban development – typical of the multifaceted city of Linz.

New railroad bridge over the Danube

Highlight • Bridge

An important crossing over the Danube, with expansion joints at both ends, cyclists have to be careful not to damage their rims. A design flaw that was half-heartedly improved.
The side bays invite you to linger!

October 12, 2024,... after work I wanted to go straight home! 😁😂🚴😎

a relaxing trip out of the city after work, with the wind and the warm rays of the afternoon sun at my back. A calm pace and taking advantage of the moment that presents itself is the reward for my mind!
