The 539 meters (1,768 ft) tall Postlingberg hill rises above Linz and river Danube. Looking up to the hill from the city, guests will notice the Pöstlingberg Pilgrimage church, a white edifice that juts above the lush green treeline. Built in 1748, the church is dedicated to the Seven Sorrows of Mary and has also become a popular venue for wedding ceremonies. Also on the hill, a viewing platform offers visitors views of the surrounding landscape. Guests can reach the Pöstlingberg by riding line 50 of the Linz tramway, which happens to be Europe’s steepest adhesion railway. The tram climbs 255 meters (837 feet) in 20 minutes.
