Catch the cog railroad at the edge of the old town and climb halfway up Hafelkar. From there, a large cable car goes most of the rest of the way up. Finally there is a smaller cable car to the top. The entire way, there are views of an Alpine ridge and the city of Insbruck. We took advantage of the quaint restaurant at the top to have a bowl of hot soup and hot chocolate. Great adventure!

Due to the current regulation to contain the pandemic, the museums of the KHM Museum Association will remain closed until 23th March 2021! The wonderful world of the Renaissance The provincial sovereign of Tyrol, Archduke Ferdinand II (1529-95), son of Emperor Ferdinand l, ordered that the mediaeval fortress at Ambras be turned into a Renaissance castle for his wife Philippine Welser. He also commissioned the building of a separately designed museum complex to house his world-famous collections. Constructed according to the most advanced ideas of its time, it is an eminent precursor of our modern-day museums and has been preserved at its original site to this day. The armouries comprise rare examples of 15th century jousting armour from the collections of Emperor Maximilian I, suits of armour of famous 16th century commanders, the Archduke’s private armour, the armour of the court of Innsbruck, and weapons from the Thirty Years’ War.

This castle is one of the most beautiful we have seen on our tour in Austria. From Innsbruck you can get there after about twenty minutes by bus (we took a Hop on / Hop off, very comfortable and included in the Innsbruck Card). The Castle is surrounded by greenery and has a very well kept garden. There are two main buildings to visit, one connected to the entrance (with spectacular weapons and armor) and the actual Castle, to be reached with a short walk. The castle is impressive and was bought by the Archduke Ferdinand II, a true patron of the time. In the current exhibition, the organizers have tried to recreate the different rooms as they had been wanted by the Archduke: the Chamber of Art and Wonders (some even not politically correct by our current standards), the Chamber of Armor and the Antiquarium. In the upper castle there are houses as they were at the time of Ferdinando. The most sumptuous setting in the building is the Sala Spagnola, a 43 meter long banquet hall with frescoed walls and trompe l’oeil. Magnificent. There is also a section dedicated to the Habsburg portraits with over 200 portraits, made by famous artists like Cranach, Tiziano, van Dyck and Diego Velásquez. We went there on a very hot August day and at the end of the tour it was beautiful and very romantic to eat a sandwich sitting on a bench in the shade of the secular trees of the garden.

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 on a hill and can be accessed by a cable in Innsbruck, Austria and the most popular annual ski jumping competition is conducted here and this well built ski jumping track is even visible from the highway nearby. Jumpers doing ski jumping is quiet a sight, the rythum and the speed of their movement along the track is a joy.
