Innsbruck, Alpine capital in Tyrol, Austria
The city stretches along the Inn River valley at 574 meters elevation, enclosed by the Nordkette mountain range of the Karwendel Alps.
Duke Frederick IV established Innsbruck as the capital of Tyrol in 1420, transforming the small market town into a center of Habsburg power.
The Hofkirche houses Emperor Maximilian I's empty tomb, surrounded by 28 bronze statues representing his ancestors and historical figures.
The central railway station connects thirteen ski areas through public transportation, offering access to over 500 kilometers of winter sports trails.
The Golden Roof features 2,657 fire-gilded copper tiles covering a balcony where Emperor Maximilian I observed tournaments in the square below.
