    The Chapel of Our Lady in the Parish Church of St. Peter and Paul in Partschins
    Partschins/Parcines, Meran/Merano and environs
    The Chapel of Our Lady – A Place of History and Art

    The Chapel of Our Lady in Parcines is a fascinating building rich in history and tradition, dating back to 1361. According to historical records, it was built around 1350 by Knight Nikolaus Zehnter in honor of the Virgin Mary. In 1552, the chapel was extensively renovated and adorned with an elegantly crafted ceiling.
    A true highlight of the chapel is the magnificent altar. While the mensa and tabernacle structure are from a more modern era, the columns with acanthus chalice and vine leaf decorations add a unique charm. The altarpiece depicts Saint Dominic and Saint Sebastian, surrounded by the representation of the Rosary Gift of Mary.

    Saint Sebastian – Patron Saint and Living Tradition in Parcines

    Saint Sebastian, whose feast day is celebrated on January 20, holds an important role as the patron saint of marksmen and a protector against the plague. On the altarpiece, he is depicted with the typical arrows symbolizing his martyrdom and his intercession during plague epidemics, for which he was especially revered.
    In Parcines, devotion to Saint Sebastian goes beyond history. He is a living symbol of the local tradition. His values of protection, faith, and healing are celebrated through cultural customs, festivities, and the continuation of marksmen traditions. This makes him a spiritual and cultural reference point for the local community.

    Other Artistic Features of the Chapel of Our Lady

    The golden coat of arms on the altar is a later addition. Particularly impressive are the two angelic figures created around 1640 by Johann Patsch, which stand out for their high artistic quality. Above the broken pediment of the altar is a medallion painted on canvas, depicting a pope. It could either represent Pope Pius V or Pope Clement, but many scholars believe it depicts Pius V, under whose pontificate the decisive Battle of Lepanto took place on October 7, 1571—a victory attributed to the prayer of the rosary.

    Dürer Path
    Neumarkt/Egna, Alto Adige Wine Road

    During his first trip to Italy in 1494, the famous German painter Albrecht Dürer had to deviate from his route to Venice because of a flood on the Adige River. After possibly spending the night in the monastery "Klösterle" of St. Florian/San Floriano or in Neumarkt/Egna, he probably arrived at the Freedom Square in Laag/Laghetti and from there took the path over the Sauch Saddle into the Cembra Valley. This assumption is based on Dürer's watercolors of Segonzano Castle and a mill. Today it is possible to follow Dürer's footsteps on the Dürer path of the same name, which begins in St. Florian near Laag.

    Freienfeld Menhir
    Kurtatsch an der Weinstraße/Cortaccia sulla Strada del Vino, Alto Adige Wine Road

    When the menhir was discovered during excavations, it stood at the western corner of Freienfeld Manor in burnt black soil, surrounded by a circle of stones. Some of these stones still circle the menhir.

    The menhir is, in comparison to other menhirs, primitive, yet there is clear evidence of workmanship. The glacial erratic of quartz phyllite is 1.65 m high with a circumference of 1.95 m and is reminiscent of a cyclopic giant.

    As with other menhirs, it is likely anthropomorphous and imitates, though remotely, the stature of a person. The menhir was presumably a place for worship of gods, heros or the dead. It is probably a male menhir, with three aligned holes, and wearing a clearly visible collar.

    Waterfall Salorno
    Salorno/Salurn, Alto Adige Wine Road
    The Titschenbach stream ends in a 68 high thunderous waterfall, which makes the village so unique. This is where the prehistoric inhabitants used to fetch water from the stream and channel it into canals for a variety of everyday uses. This place, the oldest in the history of the village, was mentioned in documents as "Tütsche" (Tyrolean Urbar from 1288). This name could have been derived in the course of a millennium from the Latin term "ductia", which, like the ancient "sala", referred to a water pipe. Salurn, the "village on the Tütsche", was created thanks to such watercourses. This dependence is symbolized, among other things, in the coat of  arms and name of one of the oldest families of the village, the family "An der Lahn". It is interesting to note that until the end of the 15th century, the stream crossed the Gries district in the south of the village and was only later diverted to the north on the mountain side of the settlement. The wooden bridge was first built around 1500.

    Parish Church Steinegg|Collepietra
    Karneid/Cornedo all'Isarco, Dolomites Region Eggental
    The parish church of Steinegg|Collepietra is a special place where art, history and spirituality come together in an impressive way. 
    First mentioned in 1322, the church, with its walls and works of art, tells of times gone by and living tradition. Originally dedicated to St Peter and St Jakobus, later only to St Peter, and today to St Peter and St Paul - the history of the patron saints reflects the development of this sacred building.

    On entering the church, the pointed arch-shaped main portal catches the eye, with its star-shaped vault dating from the first half of the 15th century. The choir, as you see it today, was built around 1664 and impresses with its three-sided apse. A special highlight can be found in the choir: a small, artistic sandstone statue of St Peter.

    The 35 metre high tower from the 15th century houses six bells that carry the sound of faith far into the valley. There is much to discover inside the church: The valuable Stations of the Cross date back to 1747 and the colourful frescoes, created by Karl Joh. Henrici in 1794, tell stories from the Bible and invite you to linger.

    The works of art from modern times also fit harmoniously into the story: The sculptor Friedrich Gurschler created the altar, the baptismal font and the lectern, while H. Peter Fellin painted the impressive altarpiece depicting the Most Holy Trinity - with the Virgin of Protection, embedded in the mountain landscape of the Rosengarten|Catinaccio, Schlern|Sciliar and Steinegg|Collepietra.

    Another highlight are the colourful stained glass windows, designed by Prof. Widmoser and masterfully realised by the artist Ulrike Peer Huber. The Stations of the Cross were carved by Jakob Oberhollenzer and the church patrons, St Peter and St Paul, were created by Matthias Resch from Steinegg.

    In the basement of the church you will find the Museum Steinegg and the Chapel of the Resurrection - a quiet place for contemplation. The cemetery, which is one of the most beautiful in South Tyrol, impresses with its artistically forged crosses and radiates a special tranquillity.

    Useful information:
    The church is always open during the day and is barrier-free.
    Masses are always held on Saturdays at 7.30 pm and on Sundays at 7.00 am and 10.00 am.

    Hill Castelfeder
    Auer/Ora, Alto Adige Wine Road

    The fertile terrace between Auer/Ora, Neumarkt/Egna, and Montan/Montagna is an ancient cultural landscape. Castelfeder was the center of human existence in the south of South Tyrol for thousands of years. There are traces of settlements from the Stone and Bronze Ages. The remains of a castle complex, the legendary fertility chute and the walls of the Barbara Chapel bear witness to a mystical past. Also, Raetians, Romans, and other tribes who settled in the area around the hill retreated to the 400-meter-high hill in troubled times and left their traces.

    After the fall of the Western Roman Empire, the Byzantine Empire had Castelfeder refortified as a bastion against the Germanic tribes shortly after the year 500. On this "acropolis," hundreds of people could find refuge together with their cattle and supplies. The last remains of the 500-meter-long ring wall of this largest fortress of the Adige Valley are the "Kuchelen," whose construction resembles the city wall of Constantinople.

    Because of the Mediterranean vegetation, the area was called the "Arcadia of Tyrol" by romantic poets. The Castelfeder hill is important not only from an archaeological and historical point of view, but also from an ecological one. Thus, a zone with an area of about one hundred hectares was placed under landscape protection as a biotope years ago. Due to the Mediterranean climate, it is particularly mild on the hill as early as March. Today, Castelfeder is home to some animals that have become rare in Europe. The biotope's flora and fauna can be explored on the nature discovery trail.
