ÖBB Rail Tours-Tip
What distinguishes this city from others is its character and its constant development. A particular turning point was the year 2009, when Linz became European Capital of Culture. The list of new openings at that time is impressive: the south wing of the Schlossmuseum, the voestalpine Stahlwelt, the Ars Electronica Center, the rebuilt Pöstlingbergbahn line and also the Höhenrausch, which took place for the last time in 2021. Another legacy of Linz09 is the Music Theater, which opened in 2013 and is one of the most modern opera houses in Europe. The ideas, projects and initial sparks from the Capital of Culture year continue to inspire visitors and residents alike to this day.
