Mariendom

Reviewed By wolfgangw396 - Zurich, Switzerland

Architecture and its furnishings - two organs, magnificent altar, magnificent pulpit, remarkable glass windows, etc. - it is rightly a wonderful landmark of the city of Linz. As it is sizewise the largest Gothic church in Austria, even bigger than the Stephansdom in Vienna, a definite must see. And take a while to enjoy the magnitude.

Hohenrausch 2021

Im neuen Höhenrausch dreht sich alles ums Paradies. Das beliebte Format besticht durch Werke von über 30 nationalen und internationalen Künstlern und einen abwechslungsreichen Ausstellungsparkour, der über die Dächer der Stadt führt. Auf ihrem Weg durch die Ausstellung entdeckten die Besucher künstliche Paradiese: Duftende Waben und ein reflektierender Kirschgarten winken über den Dächern von Linz. Kugeln leuchten auf dem Dachboden der Kirche und eine Figur spricht mit den Engeln. Aber es offenbart auch ihre dunkle Seite. Die Ausstellung führt durch das Kulturquartier und die renovierte Ursulinenkirche bis zum Dach des 60 Meter hohen Holzturms, der einen atemberaubenden Blick auf die Stadt und die umliegende Natur bietet.

The Linzer Hohenrausch Museum is great fun for children, families and adults. The art and technology displays are engaging. However, the real fun is the tower, outdoor beach area, rooftop garden and children play maze. All of these are designed above the museum roof structure. GREAT views across the city. I would skip climbing up church steeples and just go here for a view. PS - on sunny days children (and maybe some adults ) can cool off with bathing suits at the rooftop water sprinkler area.
