Adeliges Damenstift, Innsbruck, Noble ladies residence in Innsbruck, Austria

The building features baroque facades with decorative portals and balconies, while some sections maintain their late Gothic architectural elements.

Empress Maria Theresa established the Adeliges Damenstift in 1765 as a memorial to her husband, Emperor Franz I Stephen, following his death in Innsbruck.

The residents wore black dresses with black fabric overgarments and white veils, displaying their order insignia on white and blue ribbon bows.

The Stiftskeller restaurant now operates in the lower section of the building, providing dining services near the Innsbruck Imperial Palace.

Women seeking admission needed to prove sixteen noble ancestors across four generations and meet requirements including a minimum age of 24 years.
