    Bezienswaardigheden in Zuid-Tirol

    Zuid-Tirol is bijzonder rijk aan verhalen die zich slingeren rond geheime locaties en ongewone natuurlijke formaties. Bezienswaardigheden, zoals de heksenbankjes op de Alpe di Siusi/Seiser Alm, vertellen verhalen van heksen en koningen, terwijl krachtplekken, zoals de "Stoanerne Mandln" met meer dan honderd cairns of de oude ruïnes op de heuvel van Castelfeder, bezoekers uitnodigen om te ontspannen en diep adem te halen. Unieke natuurlijke formaties zoals de aardpiramides zijn plaatsen die een wandeling en verkenning waard zijn.

    St. Peter by the Hill
    Völs am Schlern/Fiè allo Sciliar, Dolomites Region Seiser Alm

    On a small hill, in a sunny position, there is the settlement of Peterbühl. The hill, which tower is an important historical site. Here are the origins of Völs am Schlern and the entire region of the Schlern. People settled here many thousands of years before Christ. Today, the chapel of St. Peter am Bühl stands somewhat apart in the greenery. Above the door you can see the crossed keys of St. Peter, and next to them the coats of arms of the Thun and Firmian families: they are of Regina von Thun and Katharina von Firmian, the two wives of Leonhard the Elder of Völs. The altar from the 16th century is on display in the Völs Parish Museum. The decorative paintings are made in the year of 1600 in style of renaissance.

    A beautiful place for a leisurely walk directly in Völs am Schlern. Several seating options provide a relaxed atmosphere and invite you to relax. A small children's playground can also be found along the circular path, as well as a statue. Sometimes there are some goats that come to the Peterbühl and provide a good company. In summer you can take a guided tour to see the Peterbühl church from the inside.

    Earth pyramids Ritten
    Ritten/Renon, Bolzano/Bozen and environs

    The Renon earth pyramids are the highest and the most aesthetically pleasing in Europe. Earth pyramids are a phenomenon of erosion. They originate where ice-age glaciers have deposited moraine clay in valleys. When it is dry, it is rock-hard. If it comes into contact with water, it turns into a clayey pulp that flows down into the valley. However, when protected from the rain by large stones, the clay remains dry and hard. Only the part around the stone erodes. This is how earth columns are formed and become higher each time it rains. If the top stone falls off the peak, the column is certainly doomed to a quick decline because the clay is exposed to the rain and then carried away by it. The earth pyramids on the Renon can be marvelled at in three ravines: in the Rio Fosco valley between Longomoso and S. Maria, in the Rio Rivellone valley below Soprabolzano and in the valley of the Rio Gasterer at Auna di Sotto.

    22 Kobler-Hof
    Prad am Stilfser Joch/Prato allo Stelvio, Vinschgau/Val Venosta

    Der Kobler-Hof am Mühlbach

     

    © Ludwig Veith

    Dieses hart am Mühlbach stehende Haus mit Ökonomie-Gebäude entstand in seinen baulichen Grundelementen wohl in der ersten Hälfte des 16. Jahrhunderts. Diese Bauzeit-Annahme dürfte die im Dachstuhlgebälk eingravierte Jahreszahl von 1541 untermauern. Das einstöckige Wohnhaus mit Dachgeschoss beruht auf einem dreibogigen, tonnengewölbten Durchgang (Ladum) zu den Kellern, dem Stall und Hofraum. Über eine gemauerte Freitreppe gelangt man durch eine rundbogige Eingangstüre in die tonnengewölbte Labe, Küche, der getäfelten Stube und den Kammern. Links des südseitigen Eingangsbereiches ist das Wirtschaftsgebäude mit nordseitig befindlichem Scheunenzugang, angebaut.

    In der Frage nach den Bewohnern dieses „Engadiner-Durchgangs-Hofes“ nennt uns der Steuerkataster aus dem Jahre 1694/96 Christian Gabriel der Ältere als Besitzer dieses bäuerlichen Eigentums zusammen mit einem „Mannmahd“ großen Anger. Aus diesem Eigengut reichte Gabriel dem Pfarrwidum zu Schluderns, der Skt. Johannkirche zu Prad und dem „Viztumamt“ in Fürstenburg einen geschaffenen Getreide-, Schmalz- bzw. Schaf-Zins. Zurzeit S.M. Kaiserin Maria Theresia um 1775 erfahren wir aus jenen Steuerfassionen, dass diese „zu unterist des dorfs Pradt“ liegende Hofstelle des Mathias Koch aus einem Haus mit einer Stube, einer Küche, drei Kammern, zwei Keller sowie Stall und Stadel bestand. Der Hof samt einem  Tagmahd und 259 Klafter (3.218 m²) großen zweimähdigem Anger mit Obstbäumen besetzt war eingefriedet. In der Folgezeit muss das Anwesen dann geteilt worden sein, denn um 1813 bewohnen es die Familien Georg Koch und Simon Gander und 1857 haben es Johann Koch und Josef Theiner inne. Im Jahre 1871 besitzt dann Anton Kobler den ehemaligen Anteil der Koch und 1875 besitzt jenen der Gander, Michael Mailänder. Der Enkel des ersteren gleichen Namens, übte in diesem Haus bis in den 1950-er Jahren die Tätigkeit eines Webers aus, das ihn den Vulgonamen „Weber-Touni“ einbrachte. In Ausübung verschiedenster Dienste, bekleidete der Weber-Touni auch das Amt des „Gemeinde-Ausrufers“ – ein jahrhundertealter Brauch-, dem er sich je nach Bedarf immer sonntags nach dem Hochamt am Kirchplatz sorgfältig und lautstark verpflichtete. Für diesen althergekommenen Dienst bekam er laut „Nittbach-Wasservertrag“ von 1510 von den „Alt-Feld-Besitzern“ zu Tschengls, die wegen des „Nittbach-Wassers“ der Gemeinde Prad seit dato Getreidezins schuldeten, sechs Mutt Korn. Dieses holte der „Weber-Touni“ alljährlich um 13 Uhr des 24. Mai vom Kirchplatz in Tschengls mit Ross und Wagen ab. -  Seit 1. Juni 1981 ist das dreigeschossige Haus mit seinen bauzeittypischen Merkmalen unter Denkmalschutz und ab 1990 im Besitz von Robert Kobler und Manfred Michael Wunderer.

    Limepits in Sciaves
    Natz-Schabs/Naz-Sciaves, Brixen/Bressanone and environs
    A limepit is a stonewalled hole in which limestone used to be or is slaked. Limestones were quarried in the Dolomite valleys, where they were first burned in lime kilns an then transported to the construction sites where limpits had been dug. The burnt limestones were placed in the prepared pit and covered with water. As a result, their volume increased significantly while the temperature rose inside the limepit, and slaked lime was formed.

    Church "Santa Maria in Colle"
    Latsch/Laces, Vinschgau/Val Venosta

    In 1992 in the church "Unsere liebe Frau auf dem Bichl" the in Laces standing stone (3.300-2.200 B.C.) was found during restoration work by the State Monument Authorities. The stele, which is made from the finest Vinschgau marble, formed the supporting surface of the altar table. The top and bottom parts as well parts of the left upper side of the 107 cm high, 77 cm wide and 12 cm thick stone are missing. It was probably originally located around where the current church stands on the hill and would thus have been visible from afar. As well as the iconic features common to all the male engraved stones from the Etsch valley group, such as scalloped belts, axes, daggers, clubs, bows, various decorative elements and fringed capes, elements are present that belong to the Lombardy group from Val Camonica and Valtellina, such as suns, deer and stylised male figure. Thus the in Laces standing stone is great proof of the ancient connection of the Vinschgau and the Etsch valley and the valleys of north-eastern Lombardy.

    St. Nikolaus´Church in Burgeis
    Mals/Malles, Vinschgau/Val Venosta

    An inscription refers to the first consecration of the church in 1199. The nave has a flat ceiling and is equipped with oylets. The choir has a semi-circular, vaulted apse with a Majestas representation and two well-preserved Evangelist symbols. There are traces of frescoes dating back to the 13th century. To the south of the triumphal arch appear the victims of Cain and the upper body of a fish-tailed siren. The head with long hair, the thoughtful expression and the gestures of the arms give the depiction a uniquely melancholic appearance, which contrasts significantly with the image of the demonic element in the other wall paintings.

    The Church of S. Nicolaus is open from 15.04.2025 - 07.10.2025 every Tuesday at 2 pm for the guided tours in German and Italian language (3,00 € per Person, no registration needed).

    Biotope in Terenten
    Terenten/Terento, Brixen/Bressanone and environs
    The biotope "Pirchner Moos" is located at 1,300 m above sea level with a slight southern inclination. Bressanone granite provides the geological base of the biotope. The biotope impresses with two different vegetation areas. A small fen and swamp with a high moor-like edge can be found at the centre of the biotope. The small wetland is surrounded by marsh areas and wet meadows, loose forest areas and hedges. In the marsh area you can find different types of moss like sphagnum, but also bogbean, bog star, swamp meadowgrass, common tormentil, sedges and different types of the wild orchid. The marsh areas used to be mowed for the production of horse food and litter for the stables. The variety of flora in the biotope provides an ideal living space for different animals. Here you can admire primeval animals like dragonflies and the azure damselfly. In certain weather conditions you might also be able to see fire salamanders. The common buzzard loves the free space of wetland meadows. The border between the southern alpine and northern alpine rock composition of this area is located to the north of the biotope at "Hohenbichl", the so-called "Puster Valley Line". This disturbance line is one of the most important earthquake lines in the Alps. Starting point: car park in the village center

    Earth pyramids of Steinegg|Collepietra
    Karneid/Cornedo all'Isarco, Dolomites Region Eggental
    The impressive formations of Steinegg|Collepietra are a true natural wonder and tell a story that goes back thousands of years. Their formation dates back to the last ice age: when the glaciers melted, they left behind huge quantities of moraine material - a mixture of clay, sand and stones. Over the millennia, rain has eroded this material, but in some places it has formed clay cones with protective stones on top. These ‘hats’ protect the cones of earth underneath from erosion, giving the earth pyramids their unique shape.

    Their slender formations, often crowned by imposing boulders, rise up from the valley floor and seem almost unreal - as if from another world.
    A hike to the earth pyramids takes you through picturesque forests and meadows and even through a gorge. Whether you are hiking alone or with your family, this place is both fascinating and inspiring.

    The best time to explore the earth pyramids is in the early morning or late afternoon, when the light brings out the bizarre shapes in a particularly impressive way.

    Stone Man "Stoanerne Mandln"
    Sarntal/Sarentino, Meran/Merano and environs

    Hiking up to see the Stoanernen Mandln, which translates roughly to ‘Men of Stone’, is quite a popular excursion.

    The stone men are located atop a remarkable knoll on Alpine pasture and tower at an elevation of 2,000 metres above the municipality of Tschögglberg mountain plateau, looking out over the Sarentino Alps. Human figures made of stone such as these can also be found in other parts of South Tyrol: they served as a landmark frequently or were simply built by shepherds to pass the time.

    Prehistoric flint tools and stone carvings have been found at the Stoanernen Mandln, however, demonstrating that this stone knoll has served as a passage from the Adige Valley into the Sarentino Valley for millennia.

    Mythology and Witchcraft:
    Myriad tales are linked to this place. In early modern times, people believed witches met with the devil up there, celebrating wild festivals, changing the weather, and sending strong thunderstorms down into the valley.

    Tip: Sunrise and sunset hikes.

    Irrigation Channel Paths in the Upper Venosta Valley
    Mals/Malles, Vinschgau/Val Venosta

    Waalwege is the German name for the characteristic hiking trails in the Vinschgau Valley, which run without significant inclines along the hill at the foot of the high mountains. They are the paths along which run along the narrow water channels, that were dug many centuries ago and were used to irrigate the fields until the 19th century. Today, the irrigation channel paths are among the most popular hiking trails in South Tyrol.

    The paths are popular hiking trails for families, moderate hikers and everyone who wishes to enjoy the unique flora and fauna in the entire valley. There used to be 300 irrigation channels in the Upper Venosta Valley but today, only a dozen of these are still accessible. The Leitenwaal, Berkwaal und Oberwaal are navigable year round. The Turnaunawaal in Taufers i.M./ Tubre in Val Monastero also offers spectacular panorama views of the valley and the high mountain ranges.

    Gilfenklamm Gorge
    Ratschings/Racines, Sterzing/Vipiteno and environs
    A nature play in white marble!The Gilfenklamm is a gorge in pure white marble and stretches from the village Stange/Stanghe into the Ratschingstal/Val Racines to the hamlet of Jaufensteg/Ponte Giovo. Wooden bridges and runways lead through the canyon and give a spectacular sight to the waterfalls. The primordial power of the water is tangible with all senses. The gorge is protected as a natural monument and is known as one of the most beautiful natural attractions in the Alpine region.

    The runways through the gorge were built in 1896 and just after a few years the unfolded magic attracted numerous visitors. Beetween the great world wars the bridges were left to decay, but were restored in the early 1960s, and have since become a must see of the Sterzing-Ratschings area. The hike through the gorge lasts nearly one hour (1,5 hours with return) and is worthwhile for nature lovers, families and seniors.

    The Gilfenklamm gorge is situated in the Eisacktal/Alta Val d’Isarco valley, close to Ratschings/Racines and the city of Sterzing/Vipiteno. On an established trail you can walk across this charming and breathtaking canyon with its waterfalls cascading into the depth. About 100 years ago the gorge was named after the Austrian emperor Franz Josef, but its name changed so that it is now known as the “Cascate di Stanghe” gorge. During its course, the initially small Rio di Ratschings river turns into a roaring river which has been carving its way through the marble walls for centuries. Experience the forces of nature and the uniqueness of this fabulous natural monument.

    No reservation is necessary. However, it is recommended to avoid the main visiting hours (between 10.00 am and 12.30pm).

    Luis Trenker Memorial
    Urtijëi/Ortisei, Dolomites Region Val Gardena

    The monument is located along the path named after him. It is dedicated to "Bera Luis", the famous local actor, director, writer and passionate mountaineer who successfully conveyed his love for the mountains to his vast audience.

    Luis Trenker was born in Ortisei on October 4th 1892, and died in Bolzano on April 12th 1990, at the age of 97. He was buried in the family tomb in the cemetery of Ortisei.
    During his school days he worked as a mountain guide and ski instructor. He studied architecture in Vienna and Graz and opened an architectural office in Bolzano, which he had to close shortly after because his degree was not recognized in Italy.
    For this he worked as an artist and lived in Berlin from 1927 to 1940.

    His first contact with film came in 1921, when he was hired as a mountain guide for the film "Berg des Schicksals" (Mountain of Destiny). When the director realized that the lead actor was unable to climb, Trenker took on the lead role. Other films followed in quick succession, initially as an actor, then also as director and screenwriter. Not only mountain films, but also adventure films, comedies, thrillers, and historical films.
    In addition to his films, Luis Trenker also published a number of novels, articles and accounts of his experiences.
    In the last years of his life, Trenker also fought for environmental protection and nature conservation.

    The most known films:
    Struggle for the Matterhorn (1928)
    Mountains on fire (1931)
    The Rebel (1932)
    The prodigal son (1934)
    The mountain calls (1938)
