What To Expect
Town Tower (Stadtturm)
Begin your journey at the Stadtturm, Innsbruck’s iconic City Tower. Rising 51 meters, the medieval tower dates back to the 14th century and was once part of the Old Town Hall, hosting important civic meetings. A viewing platform at 31 meters offers panoramic views over Innsbruck’s rooftops and the surrounding Alpine peaks.
The Golden Roof
Just a short walk away is the Golden Roof, Innsbruck’s most famous landmark. Its ornate balcony is covered with 2,657 gold-plated copper tiles, built in the 15th century to celebrate the marriage of Emperor Maximilian I to Bianca Maria Sforza. From here, you can admire the Old Town square and imagine the festivities of centuries past.

5.00Alexandra met us at our hotel, and we proceeded to walk from there. She gave us a very informative tour of the "Old Town" part of the city, which was extremely interesting. She took her time with us, and answered all our questions. Alexandra dropped us off where the Old Town and New Town meet, and also made some suggestions for doing things in New Town. We scheduled the tour the day we arrived so that we were able to visit the places that Alex suggested.
