French Honorary Consulate in Graz

In Graz, Styria's capital and Austria's second-largest city, Honorary Consul Bernhard Rinner was appointed in January 2025 – one of France's newest honorary consuls in Austria. Operating from the Bühnen Graz premises on the elegant Herrengasse, the consulate serves the French community in Styria. Graz's UNESCO-listed historic center, vibrant university scene, and designation as a City of Design create cultural affinities with French heritage. The city's automotive and technology sectors maintain trade connections with French industry.
