The "Magic Flute" at the new music theatre, a walk across the rooftops, a relaxing bike ride along the Danube - join us on this trip to Linz, a former steel city, which has been transformed into an innovative, contemporary hub where culture, architecture, nature and science coexist as a satisfying whole.

When: 14th to 17th September 2013

Following the very well-received selection as European Capital of Culture in 2009 and, over the last decade, the debut of a variety of unique venues for technology, music and culture, Linz has quietly been building itself a niche on the arts scene. Linz's Lentos Art Museum is considered one of Central Europe's most important centres for contemporary art. With its transparent glass exterior, lit in a variety of colours at night and strikingly reflected back in the waters of the Danube, the Lentos is just one shining example of the transformation that this former industrial city has undergone.
