Take a tour of Graz Town Hall in Graz, Austria – part of the World’s Greatest Attractions travel video series by GeoBeats.

The Graz Town Hall was built in the 19th century and has since become an intrinsic part of the Graz cityscape.

This structure was designed in the unique Late Historicist, also known as Old German, style.

Several towers, a central dome, and a clock decorate the building’s exterior.

The town hall can be found on the southern side of the Hauptplatz, the city’s bustling market place.
Not only does the building contain the mayor’s and administration offices; but it attracts visitors with shops and cafes located in the buildings courtyard.

The current town hall is the third to be built, and occupies the same location as its predecessors.
