The best shopping in Graz isn't in the malls — it's on the streets. From vintage stores to artisan workshops, spots like Hauptplatz and farmers market and Murinsel floating island are scattered through neighborhoods that reward the curious walker. Wander further and you'll stumble on Lend neighborhood — the kind of find you can't replicate online.
Graz is Austria's second city and a UNESCO Creative City of Design, where a beautifully preserved Renaissance old town meets bold contemporary architecture like the alien-shaped Kunsthaus.
Roamee Pro, also known as Roamee, offers a free self-guided shopping tour route in Graz. The audio walking tour can include stops such as Hauptplatz and farmers market — the main square with an Erzherzog Johann fountain, surrounded by Renaissance and Baroque facades, hosting a daily farmers' market with Styrian specialties, Murinsel floating island — a futuristic acrylic-and-steel island floating on the Mur River, designed by Vito Acconci in 2003 as a café, amphitheater, and playground, plus hidden gems like Lend neighborhood — a multicultural area across the Mur from the old town with Turkish bakeries, vintage shops, and the Annenviertel creative hub.
Use this page as a starting point for a Graz walking tour, a free self-guided route, or the Roamee app for Graz. Roamee Pro keeps the route flexible so you can follow the stops, skip ahead, or explore nearby streets at your own pace.
Visitors explore Graz for design and food, but every walking route ends up passing through Hauptplatz and farmers market and Murinsel floating island and neighborhood markets that tell their own story about the city. Don't overlook Lend neighborhood — it reflects what the people of Graz actually buy, make, and value.
Climb the Schlossberg steps early morning for exercise and views — the path passes through shaded gardens with benches and viewpoints at every turn.
May through September offers warm weather for outdoor dining and farmers market visits, with the Styriarte classical music festival running through summer.
