East Styrian 4 Treasures Dear Cultural Tourists! The two adjoining tourism associations ApfelLand Lake Stubenberg and Nature Park Pöllau Valley have developed this proj- ect in cooperation with the LEADER-Region “Zeitkultur Oststeirisches Kernland”. It is designed to highlight the sacred cul- tural treasures of both regions and introduces “organ hiking”. More than a dozen churches as well as their organs and bells are being portrayed. Visitors are furthermore invited to acoustically experience the organs and bells. The churches stem from the periods of Gothic, Baroque and Historicism. They were elaborately renovated and are part of the sacred and artistic life in East- ern Styria. Together with the gastronomic offerings around the churches, the traditional “Kirchenwirte” (church innkeepers), they have always been places where locals, pilgrims and hikers met. This magazine, assorted brochures as well as an audio guide will help you to find out many interesting things about Styrian cultural treasures. We look forward to our many guests that visit our regions and that enjoy hiking, sacred art and culinary delicacies. Josef Hirt and Christine Schwetz, Tourism Managing Directors The “Lokale Aktionsgruppe (LAG) Zeitkultur Oststeirische Kernland” (Local Campaign Group Time and Culture East Styrian Heartland) approved EU funds for the LEADER-Project Cultural Tourism. The two tourism associations submitted an innova- tive concept which emphasizes the quality of life and the characteristic cultural and artistic treasures. Special thanks are owed to the project managers for the invariably good collaboration. We love to support innovative ideas with our longstanding experience in regional development and our financial expertise in the area of project management.

In St. Johann bei Herberstein numerous Roman relief stones, portraits and in- scriptions have survived including the well known frieze depicting the centaur fight. Parts of the Romanesque ashlar masonry give a hint as to where the oldest medieval church stood. Some of the masonry can be viewed in the cloister of the adjoining women’s shelter. A great example of the Gothic period is the pilgrimage church Pöllauberg from the late 14th century, which is of exceptional quality and size. The smaller pil- grimage churches from the 16th century in Hofkirchen (1501) and Blaindorf (1508) as well as the Holy Helpers church in Anger (1517) are also important sacral buildings of the region. The square medieval tower of the parish church Anger with its important fres- coes from the late 14th century is another sacral highlight. The oldest Early Baroque church of North-Eastern Styria was built from 1652 onwards in St. Johann bei Herberstein. It was a strictly monastic building for the Augustinian monastery there. It was later converted to the Baroque style in stages.

Clair Omar Musser was also a visionary mallet percussionist, composer, designer, engineer and leader who founded the Musser Company to be the American leader in mallet instruments. Both companies originated in the Chicago area. They joined forces in the 1960’s and originated the concept of “Total Percussion.” With our experience as a manufacturer, we have a dedicated staff of craftsmen and marketing professionals that are sensitive to the needs of the percussionist. Several on our staff are active percussionists today and have that same passion for excellence in design, quality and performance as did our founders. We are proud to be an American company competing in a global economy.

  • Baroque Architecture in the Former Habsburg Residences of Graz and Innsbruck
    EMBODIMENTS OF POWER? Baroque Architecture in the Former Habsburg Residences of Graz and Innsbruck Mark Hengerer Introduction Having overcome the political, religious, and economic crisis of the Thirty Years' War, princes in central Europe started to reconstruct their palaces and build towns as monuments of power. Baroque residences such as Karlsruhe combine the princely palace with the city, and even the territory, and were considered para­ digms of rule in the age of absolutism.' In Austrian Vienna, both the nobility and the imperial family undertook reshaping the city as a baroque residence only after the second Ottoman siege in 1683. Despite the Reichsstif of Emperor Karl VI, the baroque parts of the Viennese Hofburg and the baroque summer residence of Sch6nbrunn were executed as the style itself was on the wane, and were still incomplete in the Enlightenment period.2 It may be stated, then, that the com­ plex symbolic setting of baroque Viennese architecture reveals the complex power relations between the House of Habsburg and the nobility, who together formed a SOft of "diarchy," so that the Habsburgs did not exercise absolutist rule. 3 Ad­ ditionally, it cannot be overlooked that the lower nobility and burghers, though hardly politically influential, imitated the new style, which was of course by no means protected by any sort of copyright.4 For all these reasons, reading baroque cities as embodiments of powers is prob­ lematic. Such a project is faced with a phenomenon situated between complex actual power relations and a more or less learned discourse on princely power and 10 architecture (which was part of the art realm as well), and princes, noblemen, and citizens inspired to build in the baroque style.
