Once known as The Land of the Mountains, the 10,000-square-mile province of Tirol is a wonderland of gushing rivers, lush meadows and rugged peaks. Fantastic hiking trails wind along paths through the Zillertal Alps. Famed resort towns confetti the mountainsides, including Kitzbühel, St. Anton, Ischgl and Seefeld, site of some events in the 1964 and 1976 Winter Games. Compact capital Innsbruck is a medieval gem. The Tirolean identity is strong: Expect to see lederhosen and feathered hats.

We attended the mass in this beautiful church. Golden statues everywhere. Very nice ceiling. Cemetery in the garden. It was so cold that the kids kept their hats. Not a big church but a very nice one.

I love the history of this church. Emperor Maximilian I liked Innsbruck so much he wanted to be buried here... surrounded by 40 larger than life cast-bronze statues of his ancestors, relatives and even his favorite heroes from the Middle Ages like King Arthur. This elaborate display was built inside this church but poor Max isn’t buried there. By the time he died, he had become notorious for running up debts so the town did not allow him to be buried inside the church. So his elaborate sarcophagus is now called a cenotaph since it does not contain a body! Weird!!

This is a romantic catholic cathedral in Innsbruck, Austria built to saint James. The interior of the cathedral is so beautifully designed and is a must visit place for admirers
