Cheapest flights to Graz
It is difficult to imagine that the small city of Graz which for decades lay in the shadow of the Iron Curtain would receive three prestigious awards simultaneously: Cultural Capital of Europe, World Cultural Heritage Site, and City of Human Rights.
The city's spirit of magnanimity lies in its outreach to countries lying beyond its geographical borders. Thus, Graz has invited countries from Eastern- and Southeastern Europe to celebrate together a culturally rich, progressive, and diversified heritage. This city, that more than any other reflects a new Europe of greater understanding and broadened concepts, was selected Cultural Capital of Europe 2003.
Known as a multicultural crossroads for centuries, Graz owes its name to the Slavic language and means "little castle." The border separating Austria from Slovenia, drawn by distant bureaucrats, led to war, barbed wire, and revolt. This division, however, was a physical not a spiritual one. That is why the imminent integration of Slovenia into the European Union brings forth a rich cultural heritage shared for many centuries. In selecting Graz as European capital, the EU was aware of what a United Europe represents, and the year 2003 will highlight this notion-open borders and unity.
