The Castle Tavern Castle Tavern Castle Tavern Our country inn, located next to Thannhausen Castle, just 1.5 km from Weiz town center, has been in existence for 400 years. The Castle Tavern itself has been family-owned for over 100 years. Our family-run business primarily uses regional products to create culinary delights. The cozy guest room invites you to linger, and there is also a large hall for company parties or private celebrations (weddings, baptisms, birthdays, etc.). The quiet, idyllic garden also offers pure relaxation. The Castle Tavern also features an adventure playground and 5 comfortable rooms (10 beds). The 400-year-old area has been preserved (bar, guest room, and castle parlor). Recognizable by the vaulted ceiling and the "wooden tram" in the Thannhausen parlor. After Mr. Leiner's death, the property passed to Ludmilla Wünscher (née Leiner, Oberdorf) and then again in 1972 to Herta Pichler (formerly Wünscher). After her marriage to Heinrich Pichler, the Leiner Inn became the Schlosstaverne Pichler. In 1976, the major renovation of the Schlosstaverne began. Previously, the inn consisted only of the guest room and the Schlossstüberl (half of the Schlossstüberl was the kitchen), and the current bar area was an anteroom. The stable was demolished, and the hall was built there. The anteroom became the bar area. The kitchen was relocated to the space that had previously housed the sleeping quarters for the owners and servants. After 40 successful years, Herta Pichler handed over the business to her daughter Birgit, who continues to run the inn. In recent years, great importance has been placed on the renovation of the inn. The bar area was redesigned, the rooms were completely renovated, and the windows and facade were replaced. The Schlosstaverne shines in new splendor. Styrian Culinary Statement When a restaurant is packed to the rafters at lunchtime, even though it's located a bit out of the way, that speaks volumes. Birgit Neuhold and her mother put their heart and soul into their work here, pampering their guests with honest, unfussy, home-cooked food. They also manage to keep wait times short and keep prices truly reasonable. Hats off!

great castle

The Graz double spiral staircase, officially known as the Twin Spiral Staircase, fascinated me. Also called the Reconciliation Staircase, it consists of two opposing staircases that briefly merge on each floor, then separate and rejoin. It is open to the public, and you can walk up and down the stairs (free of charge). It is the most important staircase in the architecture of Central Europe. However, it is not the only one, nor the oldest of its kind. It is carved from sandstone. It is located in Graz Castle, which houses the state government. Opening hours: Daily, 7:30 a.m. - 8:00 p.m.

Always good for a rest.

Entrance fee is €2, which is definitely worth it.

The Graz double spiral staircase, a twin spiral staircase (that is its official name), was built by stonemasons in the years 1499/1500 during the reign of the German king and later emperor Maximilian I by an unknown master builder from a medieval construction workshop in the Graz Castle.

Graz Castle is located in the east of the old town of Graz, near Graz Cathedral, and was built from 1438 by Duke Friedrich V, later Holy Roman Emperor Friedrich III. Due to its low defensive value, the castle was connected to the fortress on the Schloßberg via a hidden passage. From 1564, Graz was the capital of Inner Austria and the castle became the seat of the Inner Austrian Archdukes. Due to this position, it was rebuilt and enlarged. After Archduke Ferdinand II was crowned Emperor in 1619 and moved to Vienna, the castle lost its function as the seat of the sovereign and was neglected.

Until 1810, the castle chapel dedicated to the Apostle Thomas stood next to the bell tower. It was a Romanesque round building that was probably built in the 12th century. The building was spared from the French demolitions, but its copper roof was removed. The chapel fell into disrepair due to the effects of the weather and was eventually partially demolished. Today, only the foundations are visible and can be seen via a steel walkway next to the bell tower. The chapel of the Imperial Palace in Goslar is directly related to St. Thomas. The Romanesque lions from the chapel entrance are in the Hatzendorf State Vocational School, and copies are in the Joanneum State Museum. Parts of the frescoes have also been transferred to a castle (the citizens "helped themselves").
