Impressions from the city centre of Bozen

Verkehrsamt Bozen - Sergio Buono

In and around Bozen, you can discover many treasures – for culture lovers as well as for nature lovers, for romantics as well as for adventurous people.

Many-faceted Bozen

For the historical centre of Bozen, you should take time and visit it with or without a guide on foot. The numerous churches characterise the city significantly: The cathedral, the Dominican and the Franciscan churches are always worth a visit.

The arcades and other picturesque streets between the fruit market and Waltherplatz Square do not only witness the long history of Bozen as a wealthy trading city. As well, the modern city life is very present. Visiting the museums in Bozen also allows you to combine past and present: The Museum of Archaeology displays the glacier mummy “Ötzi” whereas the Museion impresses with modern and contemporary art.

Wine culture & bathing fun

The surroundings of Bozen do not only have countless castles, but vineyards too. The romantic South Tyrolean Wine Route winds from Nals to Salurn, passing along Bozen and Lake Kaltern.
