Sightseeing in Graz 

The Schlossberg with its clock tower: 
This is the landmark of Graz. Discover the nature of Graz plus a famous local recreation area with a breathtaking view over the whole city. Since 1894, the Schlossbergbahn (lit. “Schlossberg lift”) has done a brilliant job of taking its passengers up the approximately 60% gradient to the Schlossberg plateau. You can also enjoy such a journey in one of the modern panorama gondolas. Once you’re at the top, there is a lot to discover. One major highlight is the 34m high bell tower from the 16th century, inside which lies the “Liesl” – the biggest bell in Graz. The Kasemattenbühne, a stage built in the exposed basement rooms of the former castellan’s house, is also definitely worth a visit.

It is a gateway to a world of creative diversity and continues to satisfy all artistic expectations.
