For many years the bishops have been living here and today, you can still find some signs giving proof of the former glory and treasures originating from different art epochs: Gothic, Renaissance, Baroque, Rococo, Biedermeier as well as Classicism and Art nouveau.

Highlights in and around Brixen

Throughout the episcopal city you can discover innumerable interesting and old buildings giving evidence of the glorious past: First and foremost, the Episcopal stronghold, the majestic cathedral and the surrounding buildings, the St. John's basilica, the parish church, the Hofburg, Neustift monastery and the wonderful Gothic cloister.

The landscape around Brixen is characterised above all by chestnut trees and vineyards, which play a very important role during the traditional harvest festivities in autumn. The whole year round, the area in the middle of the holiday region Eisacktal offers many cultural and culinary specialities, but it is also the right place if you like sports.
