Graz – Christmas in all its facets

In the Austrian city of Graz, 14 different Christmas markets are within walking distance. From Styrian delicacies to international handicraft, there is something for everyone.

With its old town being a world heritage site, Graz is predestined to be a lovely winter wonderland. The giant icemanger and a shiny advent calendar projected on the town hall’s front are just two attractions that will enchant residents and visitors alike. The city’s oldest market can be found in the Franziskanerviertel and gives people an understanding of rustic traditions. At the main place in front of the town hall, one can warm up himself at the Beerenfeuer (berry fire) and children can take a ride in the roundabout. If the little ones are hungry for more, a special Christmas market just for kids and the ice rink will definitely keep them entertained.
