About the city of Graz
Graz is the capital city of Styria in the southeastern corner of
Austria. It is located in between rolling hills, to the north, east and
west, only open to the south. The Old Town in Graz is one of the best
preserved city districts in Central Europe and listed in the UNESCO
World Heritage List. Graz’s architecture is dominated largely by the
struggle of the Reformists and the Habsburgs. A significant landmark of
the city is the romantic Uhrturm (Clock Tower), situated on top of the
Schlossberg mountain, with a clock still using its original mechanism
from 1712. Today Graz is the second largest city in Austria and home to
around 300.000 people. It offers a great deal of cultural events, like
the Styriade, an annual exhibition, dedicated to contemporary art,
theatre and performing arts. [For more information, visit the web site of the Graz Tourist Office!].
