They always say that anticipation is the greatest joy ... and in Styria we can confirm this from the bottom of our hearts. If you spend the Advent season in the Graz Region, you will feel the magic of Christmas at first hand. Advent markets await on every corner and spoil you with regional delicacies!
The fifth season is alive and well! If you like Christmas markets, you will love the pleasure capital in the run-up to Christmas! Sixteen Christmas markets invite you to stroll and linger - all within easy walking distance.
The highlights include Advent at Piber Castle, Christmas markets at the Hüblerhof farm or at the Kesselfallklamm gorge in Semriach or the Packer Bergadvent. Children can shorten the wait for the first child on a Christmas walk at the Lipizzaner stud farm in Piber.
At "Tannengraß und Lebzeltstern" in the Austrian Open-Air Museum in Stübing, you can enjoy the quietest time of the year - accompanied by contemplative Advent stories, while making straw stars or in front of a cozy fire in the farmhouse parlor.
The beautifully illuminated "Skyline" and the Christmas market on the main square of Frohnleiten, are just as much an Advent highlight as the nativity scene exhibition in Rein Abbey, the Chirstkindlmarkt in Straßengel or the night hike at Laßnitzhöhe.
