However, no historical continuity exists of a settlement before the Middle Ages. The city was originally called "Bayrischgraz" or "Bavarian Graz" (i.e. German Graz) by the German founders to distinguish it from the elder "Windischgraz" or "Slovenian Graz". Bavarian Graz, however, soon eclipsed its Slovenian counterpart and henceforth Graz always referred to the German one. </p><p>During the 12th century, dukes under <a href="/wiki/Babenberg" title="Babenberg">Babenberg</a> rule made the town into an important commercial center. Later, Graz came under the rule of the <a href="/wiki/Habsburg" class="mw-redirect" title="Habsburg">Habsburgs</a> and, in 1281, gained special privileges from King <a href="/wiki/Rudolf_I_of_Germany" title="Rudolf I of Germany">Rudolph I</a>. </p><p>In the 14th century, Graz became the city of residence of the <a href="/wiki/Inner_Austria" title="Inner Austria">Inner Austrian</a> line of the Habsburgs.

With a strategic location at the head of the open and fertile Mur valley, Graz was historically a target of invaders, such as the Hungarians under <a href="/wiki/Matthias_Corvinus" title="Matthias Corvinus">Matthias Corvinus</a> in 1481, and the <a href="/wiki/Ottoman_Turks" title="Ottoman Turks">Ottoman Turks</a> in 1529 and 1532.

During this attack, the commanding officer in the fortress was ordered to defend it with about 900 men against Napoleon's army of about 3,000. He successfully defended the Schlossberg against eight attacks, but they were forced to give up after the Grande Armée occupied Vienna and the Emperor ordered to surrender. Following the defeat of Austria by Napoleonic forces at the <a href="/wiki/Battle_of_Wagram" title="Battle of Wagram">Battle of Wagram</a> in 1809, the fortifications were demolished using explosives, as stipulated in the Peace of <a href="/wiki/Sch%C3%B6nbrunn_Palace" title="Schönbrunn Palace">Schönbrunn</a> of the same year.

It was overtaken by the <a href="/wiki/Austrian_People%27s_Party" title="Austrian People&#39;s Party">Austrian People's Party</a> (ÖVP) in 2003, which remained the largest party in the city council (<i>Gemeinderat</i>) until 2021. With the decline of the SPÖ, the <a href="/wiki/Communist_Party_of_Austria" title="Communist Party of Austria">Communist Party of Austria</a> (KPÖ) has become highly popular in Graz, despite its negligible presence on a national level. The party placed third with 20.8% of votes in the 2003 local election, which has been attributed to the popularity of local leader Ernest Kaltenegger. It fell to 11.2% in 2008, and recovered under new leader Elke Kahr, becoming the second most popular party in Graz with 19.9% in 2012 and 20.3% in 2017. The KPÖ's popularity in Graz allowed them to enter the Styrian provincial parliament in the <a href="/wiki/2005_Styrian_state_election" title="2005 Styrian state election">2005 election</a>, marking their first appearance in an Austrian provincial parliament in 35 years; they have retained their seats in the subsequent 2010, 2015, and 2019 elections.<sup id="cite_ref-30" class="reference"><a
