Steyr, located in Upper austria (Oberösterreich) in 311 m altitude, counts 43.000 inhabitants. South of Linz the city of Steyr offers both recreation and diversion, surrounded by a long history. Steyr has one of the most beautiful city squares in the whole of Europe, where Gothic, Renaissance, Baroque an Rococo meet each other in harmony. In the middle is the town's enblem - the Gothic Bummerlhaus. It still stands today as it stood six hundred years ago. Above it, the mighty Lamberg castle on the foundations of the Styriaburg. The very castle to which the city owes its founding.
