Schlossberg
In the city and on the summit – certainly no contradiction in Graz. The river, unique historic city centre and, right in the middle, a mountain. The Schlossberg hill of Graz is at once a natural spectacle, central recreation area and vantage point. It takes but a short time to ascend and enjoy the beautiful views of Graz and surroundings. The city owes its name to the castle, which was built more than 1000 years ago on this hill. From the Slavonic word Gradec for ‘little castle’ later emerged Graz.
