About location

Tucked between the Danube plain and the wooded slopes north of Linz, Plesching is a place whose character is shaped by its position beside the A7 Mühlkreis Autobahn. This suburban locality lies on Linz’s northeastern edge, where multilane road infrastructure passes through a belt of trees and low-density development. The A7 is the main motorway connection between Linz and the Mühlviertel, linking the Danube city with Upper Austria’s northern uplands. Plesching is also close to the Danube, the river that has long supported Linz as a transport and trading centre. The wider city is Upper Austria’s capital and is associated with the Ars Electronica Center, an institution devoted to art, technology and society. Plesching represents the practical, connected side of a metropolitan area shaped by river routes, industry and innovation.

Upper Austria
Region Upper Austria

Formed around the Danube and Enns corridors, Upper Austria developed into one of Austria’s nine federal states. Linz, its capital on the Danube, combines a major industrial tradition with cultural institutions including the Ars Electronica Center. North of the river, the Mühlviertel rolls towards the Czech border; southward, the terrain rises into the Alpine foothills and the lake country of the Salzkammergut. Hallstatt, beside Hallstätter See, is among the region’s best-known historic settlements and lends its name to the Hallstatt period of early Iron Age Europe.

Country Austria

Austria stretches from the Bohemian Massif along its northern edge to the Carnic Alps on the Italian border, encompassing high Alpine ranges and the Danube lowlands. The Danube links cities including Linz and Vienna, while the Grossglockner, at 3,798 metres, is the country’s highest mountain. Vienna developed for centuries as the seat of the Habsburg court, leaving imperial architecture around the Hofburg and Schönbrunn Palace. Salzburg is closely associated with Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, who was born there in 1756. Alpine Tyrol, wine-growing areas east of Vienna and the lakes of Salzkammergut add markedly different regional identities.
