Strange deaths, bizarre legends: Graz shows its morbid side

Graz looks back on many curious fates – some tragic, some bizarre. During the city tour “111 ways to die in Graz”, the GrazGuides tell stories of extraordinary deaths that actually took place in the Styrian capital. Eccentric, darkly humorous, and always with a wink.

The route leads to places that are hardly noticed in everyday life, but were the scenes of absurd stories: from a fatal accident in the opera to quirky burial rituals and the mysterious demise of famous personalities. This tour reveals: In Graz, there are many ways to die – sometimes dramatic, sometimes just plain strange.

The starting point is the main square Graz (Rathausarkaden). The tours take place on March 13, July 13, and November 13 at 6:00 PM. Cost: € 17.00 per person. Registration is required online through the GrazGuides.

Despite the morbid themes, respect is at the forefront here. The stories are based on historical sources, old chronicles, and contemporary reports, prepared with knowledge, sensitivity, and local humor.
