About Wels
Wels is the second-largest city in Upper Austria after Linz, set on the Traun river. It is best known as a trade-fair city — the Messe Wels is one of the country’s largest exhibition venues — and as a commercial and agricultural hub with Roman-era roots (ancient Ovilava).
Neighbourhoods in Wels
The pedestrian-friendly old town around the Stadtplatz forms the centre, surrounded by calm residential neighbourhoods. The city is compact and flat, which makes cycling easy and everyday distances short.
Living in Wels
Wels offers affordable rents and an excellent rail and motorway link to Linz, about 30 km away, which makes it popular with commuters who want more space for their money. It is practical, well-serviced and a sensible choice for families priced out of the bigger city.
