Which traces are we following on this route? 
Having been hugely shaped by agriculture only a few decades earlier, Gröden became an important centre for sacred art production for the Habsburg monarchy around 1900. This brought about a change in the face of St. Ulrich; workshops for sculpting, carpentry and painting sprung up, bringing prosperity along with economic success - no longer in the form of the construction of ordinary houses, but in the form of elegant villas. These villas were inspired by examples from the major cities in Europe, and tell a unique story about how Gröden reflected the industrial boom in Europe on a societal and culture level.
