A splendid clock tower, Graz’s emblem, keeps watch from the tree-clothed Schlossberg hill that’s crowned by 16th-century ramparts. In the valley below, the River Mur fast-flows along its stony bed. Between the two lies an Old Town of immense charm. Church towers punctuate red roofs, narrow streets, winding alleys, grand squares and hidden courtyards. The architecture is a pleasing mix of prettily painted buildings in marzipan colours, fancy gables, ornate palaces, Gothic windows and Baroque façades. |
