    Hiking

    In 1828, Archduke Maximilian I had the so-called test tower built on the Freinberg – blasting tests and test bombardments were carried out here. After the completion of the final tower line at a greater distance from Linz, the test tower was no longer needed. Maximilian had two floors added and the Maximilian Chapel built next to it. In 1837 he gave the tower and chapel to the Jesuits. Today the tower is part of the Kollegium Aloisianum, a Catholic private school.

    Opposite the street you can enjoy a beautiful view of the city center.
