Day trip: Summer festival at the sculpture park

The Excursion Trip Summer Festival in the Sculpture Park takes you to two places south of Graz that could hardly be more different and yet fit well together. On June 14 the Austrian Aviation Museum in Feldkirchen is first on the agenda. It's all about old airplanes, technology, and stories from a time when flying still smelled of adventure. Amidst wings, engines, and memories, it becomes evident how much courage and craftsmanship is involved in aviation.

After that, the trip continues to Premstätten for the Summer Festival in the Austrian Sculpture Park. The park is quietly nestled in nature and showcases contemporary art in the open air. Sculptures stand between meadows, trees, and blooming flower beds. Some works appear clear at first glance, while others reveal more upon a second look. This is exactly what makes the stroll enjoyable: there is time to look, marvel, and move on.

A guided tour brings the art closer without becoming heavy. In addition, there are culinary samples that round off the excursion. This creates a day filled with variety, but without haste. Anyone who enjoys art, likes being outdoors, or is interested in aviation history will find a suitable mix here.

Thus, the excursion trip begins in a relaxed manner:

• Departure: 11:00 a.m. Lendkai 11, 8020 Graz (near Kunsthaus)
• Cost: € 39.00 per person
