Burggarten
Pictorial lawns and an breathtaking atmosphere.
Burggarten park in Graz is almost a secret spot, because who would have thought that, behind the seat of the regional government above Stadtpark, so much romance is to be found? During a walk through our idyllic parks you can find pictorial lawns and an breathtaking atmosphere. Another highlight here is the former Orangerie which, following loving and extensive refurbishment, is open for events and receptions of all kinds.
Right in the heart of Graz's historic centre, the Burggarten is a peaceful green retreat inviting visitors to relax and unwind. Located next to Graz Castle, this well-maintained park combines historic surroundings with tranquil walking paths, mature trees and beautifully landscaped flower beds. Benches and shady spots make it the perfect place to take a break after exploring the city.
Thanks to its central location, the Burggarten can easily be combined with a visit to Graz Castle, the famous Double Spiral Staircase or Graz Cathedral. Whether you're looking for a peaceful stroll, a quiet moment or simply a chance to enjoy the atmosphere, the Burggarten is a green oasis in the heart of Graz's Old Town.
