Castles

In the Val Gardena you can discover traces of a two-thousand-year history - you can also visit Trostburg Castle

Numerous castles and fortresses, as well as its culture and language, bear witness to the long history of the Val Gardena. Right in the valley, you will find Gardena Castle by a fishing pond, the hidden remains of Stetteneck Castle, and the ruins of Wolkenstein Castle, built into the rock face.

At the entrance to the valley, Trostburg Castle also stands guard. It is one of South Tyrol's most famous castle complexes and home to the South Tyrolean Castle Museum. You can visit it.
