Kunsthaus
A friendly alien among the red-tiled roofs of Marion Schneider & Christoph Aistleitner
The gallery was opened in 2003. The building has an unusual and memorable design: Its roof is reminiscent of an alien spaceship or an exotic glowing fish. In the gallery, you can see examples of permanent and temporary exhibitions. Whether you come to Graz in winter or summer for shopping or sightseeing, be sure to make time to explore the Kunsthaus.

The ruins of Hösting castle
Ruins of the medieval castle in Hösting on Clemens Stockner Hill
The remains of the formerly strong castle are now found within the city. The castle was built as a strategically important location as early as the 11th century. In the 18th century, a lightning strike on a powder magazine completely destroyed the castle walls. An enormous explosion left only ruins and St Anne's Chapel.
