On the occasion of the patronal feast found here – the popular pilgrimage church in the Graz area is dedicated to "The Nativity of Mary" – I would like to offer those staying here a short reflection by Saint John of Damascus (born 675/676, died before 754): "The day of the birth of the Mother of God is a day of universal joy, for through the Mother of God the entire human race was renewed and the suffering of the first mother, Eve, was transformed into joy."

The unique location in the heart of the Schaftal Valley and the particularly beautiful outdoor dining area make a visit to the Griesbauer a wonderful experience for all ages. The unique playground, which has become an integral part of Griesbauer's experience, also contributes to this. The forest path offers families another exciting attraction and a varied opportunity for outdoor recreation. Traditional Styrian cuisine is served, and quality wines from Styria and Burgenland can be enjoyed alongside the meals.

Over 140 steps you reach the 32m high observation tower, completed in 2002. From here you can see the entire southeastern and western part of Styria
