Graz
A creative and culinary city
For those wanting to take in the stunning panorama of Graz and get their bearings, the Schlossberg is the perfect starting point. A climb of 260 steps or a ride on the Schlossberg funicular will transport you from the Old Town to this beloved viewpoint. Here, the city’s iconic clock tower keeps watch over Graz, offering spectacular vistas of the charming city below.
Up here, begin your day in the culinary capital with a leisurely breakfast at aiola upstairs. Afterwards, take a stroll through the city, where you can admire not only the rooftops of the Old Town and the ornate façades of beautiful buildings, but also uncover hidden courtyards tucked away from the main streets. Kaiser-Josef-Platz is a popular spot to sip a glass of wine or sample fresh local dishes straight from the market.
On the 6th floor of the Kastner & Öhler department store, you can enjoy the best view of Graz's old town from the roof terrace in the café-lounge "Das Freiblick".

"The friendly alien"
The people of Graz affectionately refer to the Kunsthaus Graz as "The Friendly Alien." Like a giant droplet, it landed in the city in 2003, when Graz was the European Capital of Culture. This strikingly modern building has since become a symbol of the university city, dazzling visitors with both its controversial exterior and the thought-provoking exhibitions it houses. Through one of the so-called "nozzles" – the building’s trunk-like openings – visitors are treated to a view of the clock tower. In this way, the architects have deliberately created a link between two of the city’s most iconic landmarks. The light façade facing the city centre allows artists and curators to communicate and interact with the urban space.
The Kunsthaus Café is a popular gathering spot for Graz’s creative crowd, students, and, of course, lovers of contemporary art.
