Rebuildung Graz: Life After World War 2

Rebuildung Graz: Life After World War 2 with ESN Graz on the 23rd of November 🕊️ Join us for a walking tour through post-WWII Graz for ESN Social Impact Days! What was daily life in Graz really like right after the war? We will walk through the city centre to explore the turbulent transition from the arrival of Soviet troops to ten years under British administration. 🌆 Along the way, we will discover how locals rebuilt their lives amidst food shortages and damaged homes, hear about the “chocolate girls”, and explore the lasting cultural shifts brought by the British soldiers – from jazz music, Valentine’s Day, to the very first Christmas tree on Hauptplatz. 🎷☕🎄 The Details: 📅 When? 23.11.2026, 14:20 (approx. 1.5 hours) 📍 Where? In front of the city hall, main square 💸 Costs? 2€ with ESNcard Spots are limited to keep the walking group manageable, so grab your ticket on Kide in advance. Send us a message if you have any questions, and see you there! 👋
