Herrengasse, Graz, Austria

Broad and busy, Herrengasse is the main street through the inner city. It begins at the Der Platz Am Eisernen Tor (“Place at the Iron Gate”), where the former city gate once stood, and ends at the Hauptplatz and its tram station.

It’s a good place to start your meanderings. The main tourist information office is halfway up the street, at #16 Herrengasse, close by the Landhaus Courtyard and the Painted House. You can also purchase tickets and gain access to the Styrian Armory through this office.
