This illustrated volume documents the development of the city of Linz from the collapse of the monarchy up to the end of the Second World War. The period of upheaval after 1918, the communal politics of the first republic, the process of polarisation and radicalisation leading to the Ständestaat  (State of Estates) and the National Socialist dictatorship: all of these left their stamp on the city beyond 1945.

This illustrated book is available from the archive of the City of Linz and in bookshops.
