Took a day trip to Brixen/Bressanone from Innsbruck, to get a quick taste of the Süd Tirol. Came upon the cloisters and frescoes by serendipity. A wonder to behold. Incredible that they have held up so well since the 14th/15th centuries.

Park your car at Sanzeno and walk approx. 40 mins along the cliff side through the gorge on well trodden, fenced paths to this quiet monastery. Take a picnic in your backpack and visit Bruno the resident bear before exploring the monastery built entirely by the monks. Alternatively you can drive through the gorge to the monastery. Either way it's free to visit.

The Early Christian basilica of Saint Vigilius was built outside the city walls presumably around the end of the fourth century. The structure’s original purpose was as a burial place for the missionaries in Anaunia Sisinius, Martyrius, and Alexander, murdered in the Val di Non by pagans on 29 May 397. Alongside the martyrs Vigilius, the third bishop and the patron saint of Trent was also buried.
Built during the 13th century in the Romanesque style, it features some Gothic additions such as the large rose window on the facade and a few features in the interior. Particularly interesting is the baldachin of the main altar built in the 18th century in the Baroque style. Unfortunately, the interior of the Cathedral was being refurbished and the whole left nave was covered in scaffolding. I decided to visit the small archaeological site below the main nave and whose entry ticket was combined with the diocesan museum; this is the site where the early Christian Basilica of St Vigilius used to stand before the present Cathedral was built. The Basilica was built during the 4th century and features mosaics, many old tombs, and a larger room which then served as crypt to the Cathedral.

Bressanone is a very charming little town and a wonderful place to sit, relax and take in the comings and goings The Duomo is the centerpiece of the town and it's well-situated Piazza
