Located some 15km northwest of Graz and consisting of about 100 Austrian farmstead buildings, the Austrian Open-Air Museum in Stübing is ideal for a family outing. The museum is about a 20-minute walk from the Stübing train station; turn left out of the train station and pass over the tracks, then under them before reaching the entrance. Hourly trains make the journey from Graz (€4.50, 15 minutes).
Pick up a copy of the English-language guidebook (€2.90) at the entrance.
On the last Sunday in September the Erlebnistag, a special fair with crafts, music and dancing, takes place here.
