About Graz

Graz, Austria's second city, is a graceful old town of Renaissance courtyards and red roofs below a clock-tower hill, on the Mur river in Styria.

The historic centre of Graz is a World Heritage site, a mix of Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque buildings around the Hauptplatz, with arcaded courtyards and red-tiled roofs. The Schlossberg hill rises above, topped by the Uhrturm clock tower, whose hour hand is the long one. Nearby, the Landeszeughaus holds a vast collection of historic arms and armour, preserved in the arsenal that once supplied the region's defenders.
