Schloßberg
You can't fail to miss this sight, with its famous clock tower. But don't expect to keep perfect time here—the hours and minutes are not quite what they seem.
Graz’s rich and complex history has given it a unique and sophisticated culture, a tradition that it continues with the new endeavours it comes up with today. Here are the six best places that allow you to lift the lid on the culture and history of Styria, not to mention having an enjoyable experience doing so.
Murinsel | Island in the Mur
This pedestrian-only bridge is a kind of architectural wonder and futuristic island haven—certainly one of a kind and definitely a must-see.
Burg & Doppelwendeltreppe | Burg & Double Spiral Staircase
Feel like walking in a spiral only to end with the feeling you're in an Escher drawing? This puzzling and crazy place will send your mind in twists and turns.
Kunsthaus Graz
This state-of-the-art building with its remarkable form houses some of the most important, challenging and poignant works of art from the last 50 years. A must!
Landeszeughaus Graz
If you're still on the lookout for your knight in shining armour, then come here—if you don't find the knight, at least you'll find the rest. Stunning!
Herz Jesu Kirche
Don't miss the "under church", the place for lost souls, a kind of mercy purgatory if you like. But whether you believe or not, this is one impressive place.
