DISCOVER TYROL'S HISTORICAL OLD TOWNS

 Middle Ages, Renaissance, Baroque - a trip to the beautiful old towns of Tyrol leads straight to the architectural heyday of the country. They can also be admired in the rain without getting wet:

One is well protected under the arcades of the historic center of Innsbruck and the dainty Rattenberg - the smallest town in Austria -, in the museums of the medieval fortress Kufstein, the narrow streets of Hall in Tirol and in the small cafes and shops of Lienz.

Magnificent town houses, proud fortresses and quaint alleys: the beautiful old town centers in Tyrol's towns quickly cast a spell. There is a lot to see here – and a lot to learn historically.

They tell stories from past centuries, and in some of their old walls the passage of time seems to have stopped. The town centers of the historic towns in Tyrol usually date back to the Middle Ages and have been lovingly restored. The Golden Roof of Innsbruck, the Kufstein Fortress with the Heroes' Organ or Rattenberg with its long glassmaking tradition - the most exciting sights, buildings and museums are almost always to be found in the middle of the old town.

The largest historic town center is in Hall in Tirol, which flourished for centuries thanks to the salt trade.
