Donaulände & Brucknerhaus
Donaulände / Brucknerhaus
A long grassy park along the south bank of the Danube, linking the Lentos Museum with the Brucknerhaus, a popular spot for summer picnics and cycling
The Donaulände riverside park stretches east from the Nibelungen Bridge. Lawns, sculptures and cycle paths line the river, making it a favorite summer spot for locals to sunbathe and picnic. The Danube Cycle Path also runs through Linz here. The Brucknerhaus at the eastern end opened in 1974 and is named after the composer Anton Bruckner. It has world-class acoustics. Every September it hosts the Bruckner Festival, and its opening event, the Klangwolke (sound cloud), is a large-scale light-and-fireworks show on the riverbank that draws tens of thousands of spectators. The park is free, and concert tickets are sold on the official website.
