Schlossberg slide
The Schlossberg slide with a track length of 170 metres makes going down the mountain a very special experience. It starts at the Uhrturmkasematte station, inside the mountain below the Uhrturm. Here you whizz from the top to the bottom station in around 40 seconds – a must-do for young and old alike.
Market on Kaiser-Josef-Platz
At Styria’s oldest farmers’ market on Kaiser-Josef-Platz from Monday to Saturday, the people of Graz buy products from local farms: from cheese and flowers to vegetables and, of course, the famous pumpkin seed oil. On sunny afternoons, this is THE place to have a sundowner spritz!
