Längenfeld

Längenfeld is a municipality in the Ötztal valley in Tyrol, Austria, comprising several village communities across a mountainous landscape. The area spreads across different elevations and is characterized by meadows, forests, and steep mountain slopes.

The area was settled early, and the Church of Saint Catherine dates back to the 14th century, showing a long human presence. The region was part of the Ötztal, which has been a distinct territory since medieval times.

The late Gothic-baroque church constructed in 1303 stands as a central architectural element of Längenfeld's administrative territory.

The area is best explored on foot or by bike, as roads wind through the villages. Local accommodations and small shops are available, but it is wise to check weather conditions since the mountain location brings snow and cold.

Located at 1,179 meters above sea level, Längenfeld maintains a population density of 24 people per square kilometer across its expansive territory.
