Description | In 1985, the European Union began naming a city to serve for a year as the continent’s Capital of Culture. Since 2005, this annual title has been bestowed simultaneously on two or more cities. Linz will be sharing 2009 honours with Vilnius, the capital of Lithuania. Linz is already looking forward to serving as Europe’s official host for an entire year! And our visitors can look forward to a diverse and innovative array of cultural events presented throughout our city and our region. The Linz09 lineup includes several themes: the city of Linz, its history and future as well as Europe and the world will have a share in the programme. Linz has been developing into an extraordinary prototype of the modern European city—a technology- and knowledge-based urban industrial centre that takes culture and the business of staging a cultural calendar equally seriously, and, at the same time, places tremendous value on ecologically-oriented quality of life. Thus, interlinking industry, culture and nature is of particular interest to Linz09. This is precisely why our aim is to make Linz Austria's most interesting city, not only in 2009 but more than ever in the years that follow. |
