About Kleinmünchen
Where to stay in Kleinmünchen
Each area has its own feel; here's who each one suits.
Kleinmünchen is where travellers end up when the Linz centre is full or when a car makes the outskirts the sensible choice, and the quarter answers that brief without pretending to be more. Expect residential streets. Kleinmünchen-Auwiesen is half a kilometre on, and Ebelsberg under two.
You trade evening choice for a short drive and streets that stay quiet after dark.
About Kleinmünchen
What are the main landmarks in Kleinmünchen?
Kleinmünchen's landmark tally stops at one. A single name carries it, the Jaukermühle, a mill whose title has outlived whatever trade it once did, and the rest of what a visitor sees belongs to Linz proper. Ebelsberg holds a castle and a parish church within two kilometres. Pichling and Neue Heimat fill in the rest of this side of the city.
What is the history of Kleinmünchen?
A mill name is the whole inheritance. The Jaukermühle keeps a working past on the map, and the quarter around it has since been folded into Linz alongside Ebelsberg and Kleinmünchen-Auwiesen, which are its closest neighbours. Ask when Kleinmünchen began and the answer is the mill, not a year.
What survives is the shape of an outer quarter of Linz, in Oberösterreich, with Neue Heimat and Bindermichl among the nearer quarters.
Where is Kleinmünchen?
Kleinmünchen lies on the outer side of Linz in Oberösterreich, half a kilometre from Kleinmünchen-Auwiesen and under two from Ebelsberg.
