Innichen, Mountain commune in South Tyrol, Italy
The municipality stretches across the Puster Valley at 1,175 meters elevation, bordered by the Dolomites mountains and the Drava River's headwaters.
Duke Tassilo III of Bavaria established Innichen Abbey in 769, which formed the foundation for the settlement and remained under control of Freising bishops until 1803.
The Collegiate Church of San Candido stands as a prime example of Romanesque architecture in the Eastern Alps, with its bell tower and medieval frescoes.
The town serves as a railway junction between Italy and Austria, offering direct connections to major cities and access to numerous hiking trails.
The Dolomythos Museum presents the geological formation of the Dolomites through detailed exhibits and mineral collections from the surrounding mountains.
