Starting in the lively Hauptplatz, you are immediately immersed in Graz’s vibrant atmosphere before winding through medieval lanes and Renaissance courtyards that reveal centuries of architectural beauty. The tour balances iconic landmarks such as the Landhaus, the Cathedral, and Emperor Ferdinand II’s Mausoleum with panoramic views from Schlossberg Hill and its beloved Clock Tower, giving you both ground-level charm and sweeping perspectives of the city. Experience a seamless transition from old to new: after exploring Gothic and Baroque treasures, you encounter bold contemporary design at the Murinsel and Kunsthaus Graz, highlighting Graz’s role as a city that honors tradition while embracing creativity. You will discover Graz’s essence—its history, artistry, and forward-looking spirit—all within a walkable, story-rich journey.

Itinerary

Located in the center of the city, you will be visiting a fortress which is a tree-clad hill. Its architecture constructed by Italians dates long back to the 10th century. This castle was later on turned into a public park for open visits.

Along with the Schlossberg, you will be able to see the 13th century medieval clock tower with the exquisite city view.

Discover the cultural and historical museum of the city. This museum demonstrates the economic, social and political history of the city.

You will be able to see thousands of gothic as well as contemporary buildings in the old town of Graz.

Hauptplatz is considered the main square of the city. Here you will see a bronze punk statue which is the forte of this area.

Visit the 15th-century cathedral of Graz which is dedicated to Saint Gailes, depicting the Gothic architecture.

This is the city’s first opera house, designed in the neo-baroque style. It underwent a renovation of 15 Million Dollars, after the bombings of World War II.
