Located on the banks of the Mur River in central Austria, is the industrial city of Leoben. While it may be an industrial city there are still plenty of attractions to draw in tourists. The city center offers wonderful old architecture to see, unique Austrian shops and traditional cafes. When exploring the town center be sure to stop by the medieval tower, Schwammerlturm. The ornate tower is one of the most famous buildings in Leoben and has an elevator that will take you to the top to enjoy the stunning views of the city and surrounding mountains. When the time comes to satisfy the appetite you have worked up from your exploring, check out the Arkadenhof restaurant which serves up traditional local dishes, like Schnitzel and Baurenbratl with a home-brewed beer to wash it down. Be sure to stay one of these top 10 Airbnb vacation rentals when you are in the area.
