History & character
From Port District to Industrial Area
The district Industriegebiet-Hafen in Linz has developed from the former statistical districts Hafenviertel and St. Peter. In 2014, the new statistical district was established, named after the existing industrial area and the Linz harbor. Located east of the city center and bordered by the Traun, the Danube, and major transport routes, the area's structure is shaped by its surroundings. Notable landmarks include the protected fortification at Am Winterhafen and modern facilities like the Voestalpine Stahlwelt, serving as an event center and museum. Today, Industriegebiet-Hafen is a place that combines industry and history, offering direct access to important transport routes.

Climate & environment
On hot summer days, local cooling matters. Water close by cools the surroundings noticeably.

Light & shadow
Check the light anywhere. Type an address or click the map, pick a floor and drag through the day. The buildings cast their real shadows. Pan the map to explore.

How much of it reaches you also depends on orientation and windows. Terrain is included, from the official elevation model out to 12 km: a mountain to the south takes the winter sun just as the house opposite does. Where the sun only grazes a ridge, the figure remains an approximation.
