For example, you will get to visit the Bruckner Organ in the Old Cathedral, which the master lovingly called “his organ”. Following this, you will ascend the Bruckner Stairway where you’ll see display windows and posters detailing the life and works of Anton Bruckner. Overnight stay in a good, middle-class hotel in Linz.

Day 2: St Florian’s Priory The Augustinian Priory in St. Florian was a home for Anton Bruckner even in his younger years. As a child, he was a member of the famous Florian Boy’s Choir and, later, a teacher and the priory’s organist. Anton Bruckner was laid to rest under the larger Bruckner Organ in the priory church. On a tour, you will get to know the historic and stately rooms in St. Florian’s priory. A short organ concert on the Bruckner Organ rounds off the trip. At lunch you can enjoy a refreshing two-course lunch in the priory’s cellar.
