Internet Consulting - Benedikt TrojerThe village has about 1,500 inhabitants and it is located at about 970 meters above sea level on the slopes of Mt. Plose, the home mountain of Brixen. Its history probably goes back to antiquity; the first written source dates back to the 12th century.
Once St. Andrä was a typical scattered settlement, composed of a small village centre with parish church and several remote farms. Over the time some hamlets built their own little churches and chapels. Thanks to elaborate frescos some of them still rank among the sights of the village. The settled region gradually grew, so that today St. Andrä is small, but attractive place of residence and holiday resort.
