Graz
Adventure region Graz
The city of Graz is the capital of Styria and the second largest city in Austria, a modern City of Design and at the same time a cozy Styrian capital. Many people still know Graz as the European Capital of Culture in 2003, and in 2011 Graz was also named a City of Design by UNESCO. Graz's landmark, the clock tower on the Schlossberg, towers imposingly over Graz's old town and is a prominent feature in many photos of Graz.
Throughout the year, it is the cultural hub of the country thanks to many well-known festivals. Austria's only capital of pleasure invites you to relax and enjoy yourself. Nature and sports experiences, top excursion destinations, culture and history, wellness and relaxation beckon right outside the city gates. Variety and fun are the motto in all directions of the Graz adventure region.
