Send Flowers to Linz, Austria

Linz lies on both banks of the Danube, roughly halfway between Vienna and Salzburg, and is the capital of Upper Austria. For decades it was known mainly for steel. The works still operate on the eastern edge, but the city now presents itself through the Ars Electronica Center and the Lentos art museum on the riverbank. Its other claim to fame is the Linzer Torte, often described as the oldest known cake recipe in the world.

The long Landstraße runs from the baroque main square through the centre. North of the river is Urfahr, with the Pöstlingberg and its pilgrimage church high above, reached by a steep tram. Students live around the Johannes Kepler University in the northeast, families in Froschberg, Kleinmünchen, Ebelsberg and the newer solarCity in Pichling. Patients at the Kepler University Hospital can receive flowers if the campus and ward are given.

You can send flowers to Linz for next-day delivery, Monday to Saturday, by ordering before midnight local time. Sundays and public holidays are excluded. As an industrial and business centre the city has many commuters, so for weekday deliveries to homes it helps to add a mobile number and say whether a neighbour may accept the bouquet. Upper Austrians are practical people, and a generous bunch in cheerful colours is always welcome.
