Fischerhäusl
The Fischerhäusl in Linz is one of the oldest buildings in the former fishing village of Alt- Urfahr and was built in 1642.
The core of the house dates from the early 16th century. Gothic window elements and building parts in the Renaissance style still indicate this today.
In the 19th century, the building, located directly on the river, served as a customs post for the Danube . At the time of the flood of the century in 1954, the building belonged to the Stiftinger-Hoffelner family of confectioners and was then run as a restaurant for several decades.
The house is owned by the City of Linz. In April 2002 the catering business was reopened under a new operator after urgently needed renovations. The house was renovated and fundamentally modernized within six months at a cost of around 654,000 euros. However, only four months later, in August, the great flood caused considerable damage, and a larger sum of 220,000 euros was again spent on repairing it.
