The Imperial resting place. Worth seeing at least from outside. Closes at 17:00 usually.

While we couldn't actually get into the mausoleum (it's only accesible via guided tour and we ran out of time to book one) the building on the outside is very impressive indeed. It's really close to the city center so it's one of the must-see's when visiting Graz.

Certainly on of my most favorite buildings in Graz. An imperial place of rest next to the Dom. Turquoise domes stand out against the blue sky above the Mausoleum and, together with the Dom and Katharinenkirche church, define one of the city’s magnificent views. You could almost have been whisked away to the lands to the south, given how this ensemble enchants any visitor with more than just a hint of Florentine flair. Here in Graz, Emperor Ferdinand II had his court artist Giovanni Pietro de Pomis lay out the impressive tomb.

I had a problem when visiting this place, I went to pay with a €10 and the lady in the front informed me that she didn’t have change...mind you the entrance fee is €6, how do you not have change for that amount? I asked her if she would charge me the student rate since it was €5 and I’m pretty sure she would have change, she informed me that she couldn’t unless I had a student ID, which is idiotic since it’s not my fault she didn’t have change. So I had to go around asking for someone to change me a €5 note into coins so I could go in. How do you not have change?!? Its ridiculous. Either way the place is not worth €6, I would say €4 at most.

A hidden treasure in Graz. Not well marketed but well worth the visit. The staff were very helpful. Views from the top of the tower are excellent. Watch out for the bell chimes if you are up there. They are very loud!
