Museer i Linz

Museums & Galleries

Linz’s cultural scene spans from the 8th-century history of Linz Castle to the futuristic digital art at the Ars Electronica Center. The Lentos Museum of Modern Art features masterpieces by Klimt and Schiele, while the Francisco Carolinum focuses on regional painters. Industrial heritage is explored at Voestalpine Steel World, and the Pöstlingbergbahn Museum details one of the world's steepest railways. Contemporary art finds a home in the OK Center and the Stadtwerkstatt, showcasing the city's transition from an industrial hub to a media arts capital.
