Meet my hometown - Steyr

Steyr is a town in Upper Austia with roughly 40,000 inhabitants. It is famous for its beautiful medieval town center. The oldest houses there were built in the 12th century.
A surprisingly high number of tourists comes here every year and the town center is also where you go if you want to go out. But don't expect too much - if you want to party hard, better go somewhere else.
You can also find lots of restaurants, boutiques, and other little shops there, along with big electronics- and bookstores. In summer, the restaurants build up terraces right on the town square so you can enjoy the atmosphere while eating. 

The other thing Steyr is famous for are the industrial plants. Many large companies have production sites in Steyr, like BMW, MAN, or SKF.
The BMW plant in Steyr is the biggest engine production facility of the company and employs more than 3,000 people which makes BMW the biggest employer in the whole region. Even I work there every summer and I love it (seriously, I do.)

Actually, Steyr is not where I've lived in the past years, but I was born there and went to school there. My hometown offers a lot of different school types, for example a business school (my high school), a technical school, and several grammar schools. There's also a University of Applied Sciences, but they don't offer any courses I would be interested in.

I hope you all enjoyed reading about my hometown and maybe we'll meet there next summer!
