Steyr is a town in the Austrian federal state of Upper Austria. Steyr is famous for its historic town center around the "Stadtplatz" (town square), which has been very well preserved for several hundred years, and which was largely restored following World War II. Its best-known piece of architecture is called The Bummerlhaus which is considered one of the finest pieces of Gothic architecture for its size in Central Europe.
The city is very attractively sited, with two rivers the Steyr and the Enns flowing through it and meeting in the town centre where the confluence is towered over by the Babenberg castle "Lamberg" and the church of St. Michael.
