Oberstalleralm, Mountain pasture and heritage site in Innervillgraten, Austria

Oberstalleralm is a hamlet-like alpine settlement at 1864 m in the rear Stallertal, at the start of the Arntal, in the municipality of Innervillgraten. It consists of 16 two-storey log huts with shingle-covered gable roofs and balconies, their ridges facing down the valley, plus the Schutzengelkapelle. The huts, mostly from the 19th century and partly renovated in the 20th, are now used mainly as simply furnished holiday houses.

The settlement developed as a traditional alpine pasture for livestock herding in the Tyrolean mountains, with some log cabins dating to the 19th century. Three of the structures were rebuilt or newly constructed during the latter half of the 20th century following regional building methods.

The Schutzengelkapelle in the middle of the settlement was built between 1954 and 1956 as a single-bay chapel with a recessed round apse, shingled roof and a small masonry roof turret topped by a sphere and cross. Its interior was executed to plans by the Franciscan friar Raimund Gastl from Lienz; the plain altar and the oval guardian-angel painting date from the construction period.

The settlement is reached via a valley road that runs from Innervillgraten through the lower pasture areas, making vehicle access straightforward. Walking trails from the location lead to nearby mountain summits and connect to broader hiking networks in the region.

The alpine huts were originally designed with living quarters and livestock areas shared under one roof, a building approach still visible in some structures. This close arrangement reflects how shepherds and animals worked together as part of the mountain economy.
