Cathedral housing precious works including two chests carved with ivory on ebony.
Frederick III had the cathedral built between 1438 and 1464 in the flamboyant Gothic style. At the end of the 17th century, many Baroque elements were added. The interior contains precious works, including two chests carved with ivory on ebony. Above the choir is the motto of Frederick III: "A.E.I.O.U" or "It is Austria's right to rule the world". On the outside of the cathedral, there is a remnant of the fresco The Plagues, which depicts three plagues that struck Graz in 1480: the Turks, the locusts and the plague.

Si l'on se fie à l'extérieur assez sobre de l'église on ne s'imagine pas vraiment être devant la cathédrale de Graz. A l'intérieur par contre on y retrouve une belle architecture gothique flamboyante avec de nombreux trésors historiques et écclésiastiques d'aucuns évoquant la période impériale et notamment la devise de Frédéric III "A.E.I.O.U" au-dessus du choeur. Ne manquez pas sur la façade sud, la fresque gothique "Gottesplagenbild" évoquant les trois fléaux (famine, peste et guerre contre les Turcs) qui frappèrent Graz en 1480.
