... Steyr armoniously combines its tradition-rich past and vibrant present in a beautiful symbiosis! 

Steyr am Nationalpark, rich in culture, industry, nature and architecture, is a liveable and loveable small town. Situated in the middle of the Austrian Romantic Road between Salzburg and Vienna, the 1,000-year old town is a veritable jewel of architecture. In the historic Stadtplatz Square townhouses dating back to various stylistic epochs stand harmoniously side by side. The Enns and Steyr Rivers that have influenced Steyr’s development for centuries picturesquely meet right below the Lamberg Castle.
