About Wetzelsdorf
Where to stay in Wetzelsdorf
Not every neighbourhood fits every trip — here's what each one is good for.
Beds sit between two neighbours. Wetzelsdorf runs between Eggenberg and Straßgang, which makes it a practical base for anyone crossing between those districts rather than sightseeing in the old centre of Graz. Churches mark the streets.
The Christuskirche, the Schutzengelkirche and St. Johann und Paul stand within the residential blocks where most of the rooms are, and the Kriegerkapelle Wetzelsdorf sits quietly among them.
