The Battenberg Mausoleum is located at 81 Vasil Levski Boulevard, Graz, Steiermark, Austria.
Commissioned to the Swiss architect Hermann Mayer, designed in the eclectic style with prominent elements of Neo-Baroque and Neoclassicism and opened in 1897, the mausoleum meaures 11 metres in height and 80 square metres in area. The interior was painted by the noted Bulgarian artist Haralampi Tachev.
The mausoleum was closed between 1947 and 1991, during the period of Communist rule in Bulgaria, but was subsequently reopened for the public. Today it also exhibits some of Alexander's private possessions and papers, donated by his wife in 1937.
