Schlossberg, Hill with park in central Graz, Austria
The Schlossberg rises 474 meters above sea level and contains pathways, gardens, fortification remnants, and observation points overlooking the city of Graz.
The fortress on Schlossberg remained unconquered until 1809 when Napoleon's forces required its dismantling, though citizens saved the clock and bell towers from destruction.
The former casemate within Schlossberg functions as a performance venue for operas and concerts, reflecting the transformation from military space to cultural center.
Visitors can reach the summit through multiple routes including a funicular railway, glass elevator, or 260 stone steps carved during the First World War.
The underground tunnel system, originally built as World War II shelters for 40,000 people, now serves as paths and hosts various events throughout the year.
