Mini Advent Calendar "Graz"

Graz, the capital of Styria, truly has a name that extends beyond the borders of Austria. The city of Graz has received numerous awards, including European Capital of Culture 2003, Human Rights City, and European Prize winner. UNESCO has included it in the World Heritage list. Graz boasts one of the largest and most beautiful closed city centers in Europe. Since the Middle Ages, Graz has developed architecture in Gothic, Baroque, Renaissance, and Art Nouveau styles. The Karl-Franzens University in Graz is the second oldest university in Austria, founded in 1585. The Graz Cathedral is also part of the historic old town. However, it is not only the architectural beauty that makes Graz so renowned. The high-quality Styrian pumpkin seed oil, affectionately known as Kernöl by locals, is highly regarded beyond Austria's borders and is an essential ingredient in any kitchen.

Our Advent calendar features a view of the main square with the clock tower on the Schlossberg. The clock tower, a landmark of the city of Graz, houses three bells with wonderful names such as Hour Bell, Fire Bell, and Sinner's Bell, also known as the Rag Bell. Behind the windows of this mini Advent calendar, you will find many images showcasing typical Graz specialties and festive treats. Enjoy gifting and discovering for yourself.
