Steyr's Old Town is one of Austria's most atmospheric historic city centers. Situated at the confluence of the Enns and Steyr rivers, it combines a medieval urban structure with well-preserved Gothic, Renaissance, and Baroque buildings. Around the town square with its magnificent burgher houses—including the famous Bummerlhaus—narrow lanes, courtyards, and squares unfold, reflecting the former prosperity of this iron-producing city. High above, Lamberg Castle sits atop the walls of the ancient Styraburg, the city's origin. A visit to the Old Town leads past characteristic facades, across bridges to the riverbanks, and to viewpoints offering particularly evocative vistas of the historic ensemble. Overall, Steyr's Old Town presents a harmonious blend of history, architecture, and picturesque urban ambiance.

The Memorial Tunnel in Steyr is a memorial site commemorating the Nazi era and, in particular, the forced labor at the former Steyr-Münichholz subcamp of the Dachau concentration camp. The exhibition is located in an approximately 140-meter-long air-raid shelter tunnel beneath Lamberg Castle, which was driven into the rock by concentration camp prisoners in 1943. In this original, preserved tunnel, the exhibition guides visitors through the years 1938 to 1945, using documents, photographs, and personal accounts to illustrate the profound impact of the armaments industry, forced labor, and persecution on life in Steyr. The deliberately simple and somber design evokes the confinement and atmosphere of the place, making the tunnel a central learning and memorial site used by many visitors and school groups to gain a deeper understanding of the local history of the Nazi period.

St. Michael, colloquially known as the "Michaelerkirche", is located in the Steyrdorf district and is a Roman Catholic parish church. It belongs to the Steyr deanery in the Linz diocese and is a listed building. The former Jesuit church, with its elevated position at the confluence of the Steyr and Enns, dominates the cityscape of Steyr. A special feature is the gable fresco between the two towers. There is a statue of the Archangel Michael in the forecourt.
