The city of Linz is the city of fine arts, but at the same time you will be given the opportunity to taste local delicacies that you will remember for the rest of your life.

One of the most beautiful and oldest cakes of central Europe and by extension Austria is Linzer Torte. After all, he got this particular cake from Linz and that’s why he got his name.

It is a special culinary experience, as the cake is usually flooded with blackcurrant jam. Some others prefer to use raspberry or apricot jam with the crust flavored with lemon, cinnamon and nuts.

Tourists think it’s a tart, but it’s a tart-like cake because of the single layer.

When you order it, you will find that it has a mesh crust on top and looks like a work of art.

However, the real “work of art” is when you taste one of the most beautiful cakes in the world and not only in Europe.

Locals say you can find Linzer Torte recipes from 1653.
