Overview

  • On this self-guided walking tour through Klagenfurt's charming Renaissance centre, you'll discover the musicians who left their mark on Carinthia's capital, from world-famous classical composers to an unlikely connection between Austria's best jazz musician and its most important pop artist. Along the way, hear how a Carinthian folk song became well-known in America, where world-famous classical melodies were composed, and how one of the world's longest singing careers began here. You'll also see Klagenfurt's beautiful Art Nouveau theatre, the Landhaus where Carinthian Parliament has met for over 400 years, and two picturesque hidden courtyards, plus the oldest house in the city, known as the Golden Goose. A perfect tour for music lovers and curious walkers alike.
