French Honorary Consulate in Linz

In Linz, Upper Austria's capital on the historic Hauptplatz, Honorary Consul Dr. Ekkehard Oskar Redlhammer has represented French interests since 2006. The consulate serves Upper Austria – a region whose industrial strength in steel, chemicals, and technology creates substantial trade connections with French industry. Linz's transformation from industrial city to cultural hub (European Capital of Culture 2009) mirrors France's own blend of manufacturing heritage and cultural excellence. The Ars Electronica Center's focus on digital culture resonates with French tech innovation.
