Golden Roof

Innsbruck's most famous landmark shines in the heart of the historic old town. The splendid alcove balcony gets its name from the 2,657 fire-gilded copper tiles that adorn the roof. The building has reigned over medieval houses and shady arcades for over 500 years. It was built by Emperor Maximilian who very much enjoyed the view: from there he would look down over the colourful hustle and bustle of his city, watch jousting tournaments and be revered from below. The shining golden roof can be seen on entering the historic old town but it is also well worth taking a look up close. The structure below the roof is richly adorned with a wide variety of figures and images, including many curiosities.

Hofburg, Innsbruck

The Hofburg in Innsbruck is a residence built and inhabited by the Habsburgs. Originally a castle from the late Middle Ages, it was expanded into a castle in the early modern period and was the seat of the Tyrolean sovereigns as well as the residence of various members of the dynasty until the founding of the republic in 1918. The current state is based on the rococo-style extensions under Empress Maria Theresa and can be partially visited.

Ambras Castle

This 20-hectare park was once the green oasis for Archduke Ferdinand and his wife Philippine Welser, who designed the Renaissance garden in the second half of the 16th century. The great highlight at that time was the artificial waterfall which, fortunately, still exists! The earliest-known written records from the year 1574 describe fishponds, vineyards, game reserves and greenhouses. A curiosity was the rotunda, in the middle of which was a table which could be turned by water power. The park is the perfect way to end a visit to the Palace, and can also be enjoyed alone. A popular place to relax.

Palmenhaus im Hofgarten

The Palmenhaus is located at the northern edge of the Hofgarten (royal gardens) and contains 1,800 types of plant. The current building was constructed in the 20th century, and every year a special rarity blooms here: the Santa Cruz water lily. This plant comes from the Amazon, and was discovered by the Austrian botanist Thaddäus Haenke in 1801. Its leaves have a diameter of two metres and are to be found on the edge, forming a cake-tin shape. One can even see them grow when the weather is warm and sunny enough, as the leaves will grow 30cm higher every day. The water lily's flower can reach up to 40cm in height, almost half a metre! it opens only in the late afternoon, is white and has a wodnerful fragrance. At dusk, the flower closes again. On the second day, it turns pink, and on the third, sinks into the water to be replaced by a new flower. This rare spectacle can be seen in the summer months, mainly from June to August or September. Due to its delicate nature, we cannot guarantee that you will see the water lily's spectacle. Simply ask in advance.

Innsbrucker Hofgarten

The Imperial Gardens are the green heart of Innsbruck. The park borders on the Imperial Palace and is also near the bottom station of the Nordkettenbahnen lifts. Are you looking for a cool place to relax or have a picnic? If so, simply choose a spot on a bench in the shade of the old trees and watch as the world goes by. The Imperial Gardens have existed since the early 15th century. At that time, however, only imperial highnesses, princes and members of the court were allowed in. Even the Habsburg Empress Maria Theresa is said to have done some "gardening" here: she had certain areas of the gardens redesigned. Today, the Imperial Gardens are open for everyone to enjoy. Play a game of open-air chess or listen to music in the pavilion.

Bergisel Ski Jump

The ski jump on Bergisel hill in Innsbruck was rebuilt in 2001. The bridge construction of the in-run, the building construction of the tower and the steel construction of the tower head beautifully combine different fields of architecture. Iraqi-born architect Zaha Hadid is behind this architectural masterpiece. She also left her mark on the Tomigaya Building in Tokyo, the Rosenthal Center for Contemporary Art in Cincinatti and the expansion of the Reina Sofia Museum in Madrid. Zaha Hadid received international acclaim in 2004 when she was awarded the Pritzker Prize for her work – making her the first woman to receive this award. At the Bergisel Stadium, Zaha Hadid elegantly combines a jump tower, café and in-run to form a striking, signal-like entity, a usable sculpture – and what other city can claim to have such a versatile work of art? The ski jump stands proudly above the Olympic city of Innsbruck on the historic Bergisel. This hill has always been a place of great importance for Tyrol and especially for Innsbruck: around 200 years ago, brave Tyroleans led by Andreas Hofer fought on the hill for their country's freedom. The first ski jump was built on this historic ground in 1925. The sports facility has twice been honoured with the task of hosting Olympic events: the Olympic flame burned on the Bergisel at the Olympic Games in 1964 and 1976. Other major events have also been held at the stadium, for example a Mass celebrated by Pope John Paul II in 1988 for 60,000 followers. The stadium at Bergisel is not only a meeting point for athletes and sports fans in winter, for example during the international Four Hills Tournament. It is also a FIS competition facility and year-round training centre featuring a ski jump with an artificial surface: a special porcelain in-run and a landing area covered in fibre damping mats. The ski jump is the most modern ski sports facility in the world with space for over 28,000 spectators. It is mainly reserved for the "ski jumping experience" but Innsbruck's modern landmark also attracts tourists: it is a great destination for anyone looking for a great view or a nice cup of coffee, as well as techies and architecture enthusiasts. The entire facility, including the funicular, the tower lift, the panoramic café and the viewing terrace on the jump tower, is open to the public daily from 9 am to 6 pm (winter opening hours from 10 am to 5 pm). This attraction is just one of the many sights and services covered by the Innsbruck Card. · Architect Zaha Hadid, 2001/2002 · A hybrid of specific sports facility and public function (panoramic restaurant "Café im Turm" and viewing platform) · Tower with base, "head" and in-run · Combined tower and bridge (91.6 m long, 48.35 m high) · Numerous international awards · Considered a modern symbol of Innsbruck Bergisel SKY restaurant Tirol Panorama Museum and Giant Panoramic Painting

House of Music

The building that was home to the Stadtsäle city halls until 2015 has been replaced with the new "Haus der Musik" (House of Music). This new building is an event venue and meeting place for artists, students and music lovers. Several institutions have already made themselves at home here, including the Festival of Early Music, the Innsbruck branch of University Mozarteum Salzburg and a state library for music. Several associations dedicated to vocals, brass & wind music and folk music are also located here. The building includes two concert halls and two theatres, as well as foyers and terraces that can be rented for events. Visitors can also enjoy themed cultural gastronomy in a sophisticated setting at the Das Brahms restaurant. The large terrace overlooking the Imperial Palace is a wonderful place to relax and enjoy. The Haus der Musik is also a highlight for architecture fans. The modern building has a large glass front and makes a clear statement that its architecture exists in the present day. The building's façade is particularly special. The way the dark colour of the building takes on the colours around it and shimmers from red to brown to aubergine depending on the time of day and weather, is something you do not see every day. In the evening, the house even appears to come to life as the lights go on inside and the façade becomes transparent. This landmark of urban planning serves as an interface between the Imperial Palace and the Tyrolean State Theatre. The state-of-the-art technology, exceptional acoustics and spacious rooms make the Haus der Musik something truly unique.

Nordkette Cable Car

GOT TO GET UP THERE! The Nordkette is part of Austria’s largest nature park, the Karwendel Nature Park, and can be reached directly from Innsbruck city centre in just a few minutes! The breathtaking 360° view leaves a lasting impression, Innsbruck on one side and Tyrol’s most extensive conservation area on the other. The Hungerburg funicular’s stations, designed by renowned architect Zaha Hadid, have become an integral part of Innsbruck’s cityscape and represent the most modern architecture in the alpine region. The funicular enables visitors to reach the Hungerburg in just 8 minutes. There are several stops along the way including the Alpine Zoo, which is a favourite among families. After reaching the Hungerburg station, a short walk across Hermann Buhl Square, named after the world-famous Austrian mountaineer, leads visitors to the cable car station. The Seegrube, at an altitude of 6,250 ft and surrounded by the beauty of Austria’s largest national park, invites visitors and locals alike to relax, unwind and take in nature at its very best. Whether summer or winter, visitors can watch in awe as local daredevils race down Europe’s steepest ski route or do their best on the trickiest downhill trail. The rocky face of the Karwendel has always lured climbing enthusiasts, and is also where Hermann Buhl trained before his first ascents of the 26,246 ft Nanga Parbat and Broad Peak summits. Lying at an impressive 7,401 ft, the Hafelekar offers the most spectacular viewing experience. Thanks to a direct connection from the city, everybody can enjoy this unique experience within minutes. The alpine park, which borders Hafelekar, has over 3,000 species of wildlife and more than 1,305 species of plants and fauna and is an absolute must for nature lovers. Visitors can often catch a glimpse of the normally shy wildlife, but the real highlight is the unique panorama of city and mountains which leaves nothing to be desired.
