The old town of Steyr is one of the most beautiful in Austria.

A magnificent view of St. Michael's Church

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.

Is it okay?

City of Steyr is worth a visit at any time?

This mighty, richly decorated town house in the western row of houses on the lower town square is named after the golden star held by two griffins above the portal, which not only symbolizes the iron trade, but can also be seen in the coat of arms of the Schoiber family, to whom the magnificent building once belonged. Completely destroyed during the great town fire of 1727, the Sternhaus was rebuilt after the catastrophe with a late baroque façade. It was named after the golden star held by two birds of prey above the portal, which is the symbol of the iron trade. The angel figures above the windows embody the five human senses with their attributes.

The "Stollen der Gedenken" memorial site has been managed by the Arfbeitswelt Museum since 2013. The exhibition was implemented by the Mauthausen Committee Steyr in a former air raid shelter and sheds light on the history of the city of Steyr in the years 1938-1945. Starting with the economic crisis of the 1930s, the exhibition chronologically examines the rise of the National Socialists in the region, the annexation in 1938, the expansion of the Steyr works for the Nazi war economy and the deployment of several thousand concentration camp prisoners and civilian forced laborers from all over Europe for the armaments industry.
