Straßgang

Straßgang (German: [ˈʃ͡tʁaːsˌgaŋ]; from Slavic straža "look-out, watchtower") is the 16th city district of Graz, in the Austrian province of Styria.

Church Maria im Elend zu Straßgang is situated about 50 m above the center of the district.

It has also some malls and psychiatric and neuropathic clinic Landesnervenklinik Sigmund Freud (LSF) which was erected in 1872 as "Irrenanstalt Am Feldhof".

As part of this the south portal of Plabutsch tunnel of the Pyhrn Autobahn was opened in 1987.

Today the Graz-Köflacher Railway is a fast means of transport to the city center of Graz as well as to western Styria.
