Graz

What to see and do in Austria’s second biggest city

Although Graz is not a secretive place, it is still full of hidden gems. Despite of being in plain view, many charming details are not obvious at first sight. For instance, have you spotted the “sleeping knight” on the roof of the Styrian Armoury or the picturesque decorations of Luegg Haus? Winding alleyways, romantic courtyards and magnificent architecture all around you – Graz is full of highlights.

By the way: Thanks to the best-preserved city centre of Central Europe, Graz was named a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1999.

The city is also known for its delicious cuisine. With its many regional delicacies and culinary hotspots, Graz is Austria’s first and only Capital of Delight.

You will be hard pressed to find another Austrian city with quite as much diversity and Mediterranean charm. This unique combination has caused locals and tourists alike to fall in love with this exceptional city. And it’s a love that lasts!
