The pleasure town on the Mur was declared a World Heritage Site in 1999 and is world-famous with its landmark, the Schlossberg with the Graz clock tower. The centerpiece is the Grazer mainsquare with its narrow streets in the Renaissance and Baroque style, which are filled with restaurants and shops. A cable car takes you up Schlossberg to the century-old clock tower. Another eye-catcher is the Kunsthaus, which opened in 2003, when Graz, the European Capital of Culture, hosted numerous exhibitions, events, concerts and other artistic performances.
