Hartberg, Administrative center in Styria, Austria
Hartberg is a town in eastern Styria that serves as the administrative center for the Hartberg-Fürstenfeld district. It sits in rolling countryside and houses the main government offices for the region.
Hartberg was founded in 1122 as a structured settlement in the region. During the Middle Ages, it was surrounded by a protective town wall, of which two towers still remain today.
The district office of Hartberg serves as a central point for administrative services, including marriage licenses and municipal documentation for local inhabitants.
The town is easily reached by car via the A2 Autobahn and lies about an hour from Graz. Visitors will find key services and information here for exploring the surrounding communities.
The Schölbinger Tower and Reck Tower are the two remaining vestiges of the medieval fortification that once protected the entire town. These structures show the defensive architecture that was typical of prosperous trading towns.
