A city built on the Roman settlement of Ovilava — the long town square, the Ledererturm gate tower, Wels Castle where Emperor Maximilian I died, and the Traun river.

Welcome to Visit Wels.com, an independant Travel guide using the "Visit" branding style adopted by more and more private Tourist Guides, marketing-savvy Hotel organisations or official Convention and Visitors Bureau.
Wels is a town where history feels steadily layered, shaped by its Roman foundations, market traditions, and its role as a regional crossroads in Upper Austria.
It stands on the site of the ancient Roman settlement of Ovilava, which grew into an important administrative and trading center within the province of Noricum. For centuries, its strategic position supported commerce and urban growth, linking routes across the region. Today, traces of this past and the historic town center reflect this legacy with preserved squares, civic buildings, and streets shaped by continuous development. Few places in Austria illustrate such a long continuity of settlement.
Modern Wels blends this heritage with a dynamic, contemporary atmosphere. As a center for trade fairs and business, it offers cultural venues, events, and urban life, giving the city a lively, forward-looking feel. Parks, local traditions, and a welcoming yet active center add to its character. Wels is a place where Roman roots meet modern industry, where history sits beside economic vitality and cafés, and where the past continues to shape the present.
