    • The local town museum is situated next to the entrance gate of the old town of Steyr. I am shure it is worth to visit because Steyr is a old town with a lot of History. But I had only 2 hours time and so I couldn´t visit it. But hopefully next time!

    • Steyr - Rathaus (town hall)
  • Rathaus (town hall)
  • by MEdelmann
  • Send Photo to a Friend
    • The town hall was built between 1765 and 1778 and it is one of be most important works of Austrian rokoko. The architect was Gotthard Hayberger, which became famous through it monastry buildings in St. Florian (near Linz), Seitenstetten (near Amstetten) and Admont (Styria). He offered plans to the officals in 1757 and they began to build in 1765, some years later.

    The town hall houses an archive and the offices of the mayors and the communal goverment. The tourist information is also located here.

    It is further called "the most beautiful baroque town hall in Austria" .... and shure it is!

    • Steyr - Sternhaus with its great fassade
  • Sternhaus with its great fassade

    • The Sternhaus (star house) has a wonderful baroque fassade and one of the most beautiful buildings on the town square. It got its name from some starns in the fassade.

    This building is the second most beautiful building after the town hall in my eyes.

    The fassade of Sternhaus is very coloful and got a great restauration, after it was hit by a bomb in World War II.

    Steyr had so much luck during the war - there was no big damage after the bombing of the town - due to heavy fog on that day, the bombed landed somewhere else ....

    THANKS GOD !!

    • This is another wonderful building - the Schmollgruberhaus. It gots its name from the Schmollgruber family, which are spezialised in restoring antique clocks.

    They also have a shop in the smallest house in Vienna - have a look on the Vienna page of Waltraud (pepples46).

  • Bummerhaus and other great houses
  • by MEdelmann
  • Send Photo to a Friend

    • Bummerlhaus (you see it on the very left side of the picture) is the oldest building on the town square. It was built in the 13th century and content the inn "Zum goldenen Löwen" (Golden Lion) for a long time. The name came from a small golden lion that is on the guild sign of the house. But the inn was also called "Bummerlwirthaus" and this is maybe the reason why it is called Bummerlhaus.

    Today it houses a bank.

    • Steyr - Parish church
  • Parish church

    • The parish church was built by Hans Puchsbaum, which was also the architect of the Stephansdom in Vienna. The construction works began in 1443.

    The parish church is a great gothic building and should be not missed on a visit in Steyr.
