Freinberg

About

The Freinberg is a mountain with an elevation of 405 meters above sea level, situated in the urban area of the Upper Austrian capital, Linz. Historically, this mountain plateau and the forested ridge to the south were known by different names, including Galgenberg and Jägermayrwald. The Freinberg offers panoramic views of almost the entire city of Linz.

The mountain was named in 1910 after the statistical district Freinberg of the Linz district Waldegg. The Freinberg statistical district is located on the southern spur of this ridge.
