Historie a kultura Bolzana

The Tammerlemoos is one of the protected biotopes in Mölten.

Protected biotopes are valuable natural habitats that host many species of plants and animals, often rare or endangered.
They play an important role in preserving biodiversity and maintaining the ecological balance of the region.
In these areas, nature is largely left to follow its own course, allowing flora and fauna to develop undisturbed.

Maids and servants The first historical mention of the Rohrerhof dates back to around 1280 and was earlier regarded as one of the valley’s largest farm estates. Admission ticket: volontary contirbution categories: farmer, craft, culture, Etnography

Under Mussolini in the 1930s, Italian factory workers were settled in a garden city called the Semirurali. These very simple houses with gardens for self-sufficiency were demolished in the postwar period, and replaced by modern residential buildings. The new complex tried not to distribute and make freely accessible the individual residential buildings around the property but rather to plan squares and streets in accordance with the existing “rules of urban design.” In the spaces between, contiguous rows of buildings were built. They border the streets and squares, as was common in the cities before the relaxed construction of modern times gave up these norms. In spite of the row construction, the buildings stand out as individual homes because of the arrangement of loggias and glass coverings as the color scheme, and thereby convey a feeling of identity.

Exhibition of sacred furniture from the baroque époque in the Tyrolean area. Next to the precious liturgical vestments and gonfalons painted by famous artists, the museum also stands out for its precious jewels from the 18th century.

The two viewpoints, Rotwand and Rotenstein, are located above the Laives/Leifers mountain hamlet of La Costa/Seit and offer a marvellous view down over Laives and across the valley to the Mendel range (Mendelkamm), as well as towards Kaltern/Caldaro and Eppan/Appiano.

From the Schneiderwiesen inn, Rotwand can be reached in about 45 minutes and Rotenstein in a further 15 minutes. Start by following trail no. 1, passing the “Blauer Herrgott” shrine, then keep left until trail no. 1B branches off, leading to the Rotwand viewpoint. After enjoying the view, return to trail no. 1 and follow it to the "Totes Moos" biotope. Just before the biotope, take trail no. 1A, which leads all the way to Rotenstein.

The Corno del Renon: The most beautiful viewpoint mountain of the Dolomites, UNESCO’s world natural heritage. At the beginning of the 20th century the famous mountaineer, Ludwig Purtscheller, enthused: “Whoever wants to take in Tyrol with one glance should climb these mountains.” He was right for on clear days visitors have an unbelievably beautiful panoramic view: from the giant glaciers of the Ortles and the Ötztaler Alps in the west to the legendary world of the Dolomites far in the east; from the Stubaier and Zillertal Alps in the north to the Presenella, to the Adamello and the Brenta Dolomites in the south. The Corno del Renon makes for an ideal excursion at any time of the year. Here you can go for a gentle walk or on more demanding and challenging hikes. The Corno del Renon is ideal for Family skiing in winter. A modern cable car makes the ascent easier. The peak is just about an hour away and nearly 200 metres in altitude difference from the mountain station of the Cima Lago Nero.

The beech tree at Tschaufen is one of the natural monuments of Mölten.

Natural monuments are special natural features of scientific, historical, or scenic value – such as ancient trees, distinctive rock formations, springs, or waterfalls.
They are protected to preserve their uniqueness and beauty and to raise awareness of the importance of safeguarding nature.

A paradise for excursions - do not miss walking on the Salto/Salten with its calming larch trees and the panoramic view on the Dolomites! 

An anti-aircraft gun (Flak) is a weapon originally developed during the First World War to defend against aircraft. One such gun was stationed in Glaning at the time to protect Bolzano from bomber attacks. The remains of the soldiers' barracks can still be seen today. 
The view from there is breathtaking. A table with benches invites you to have a picnic.

A little further north of piazza Gries stands the old parish church of Gries located in the middle of an antique cemetery. It is a late Gothic building, dating back to the early 1400, and hosts two stunning treasures: the altar of Michael Pacher (1471-75) and the Romanesque wooden crucifix of 1200. The first one is undoubtedly a masterpiece of Gothic art of the wooden altars with casket and hatch remaining today, while the second one, which probably in relation to north French sculpture is believed to be of foreign origin, is considered of great relevance.

The church stands in an area which was inhabited ever since Roman times. It was called "Keller", or "Chellare" (cellar), and later named "Gries", or sand. Until 1908 the wine farm of Bishop of Frisinga in Baviera stood next to the church.

The Plattner farm house in Wolfsgruben is more than 600 years old. The Gramm Family, a mercantile family from Bolzano, has carried out an exemplary restoration of it liaising closely with the provincial historic preservation agency and so, also because of its unique location, it is one of the most picturesque farmsteads in the region. Today it accommodates a bee-keeping museum that illustrates in a lively and vivid way the sweet art of making honey. The magnificent Plattnerhof is the largest private collection of South Tyrol’s beekeeping and it is also a monument of rural architecture and savoir vivre. A nature trail on the picturesque hill near to the house explains the world of bees to visitors.

The Plattner Bienenhof offers various products around bees and honey.

The earth pyramids in Nobls/Jenesien are fascinating geological formations dating from the last Ice Age. Here, the red clay soil of the large 'Wieser Lahn' landslide area stands out clearly from the surrounding meadows and forests, allowing the impressive earth pyramids to appear in all their glory. These unique natural wonders are not only a popular destination for hikers but also an impressive example of the power of nature. Additionally, the 'Wieser Lahn' contains the source of the Margarethen creek, a vital watercourse that flows down into the Adige Valley toward Siebeneich. A visit to the earth pyramids promises an unforgettable experience amid a breathtaking landscape!

The Talvera river runs through the city of Bolzano. The water course originates from the Sarentino Valley and its banks are home to beautiful green lawns, recreational parks, long walks and modern cycle routes. This is the green lung of the city and a popular destination for both tourists and local residents that provide rest and relaxation to those strolling along the tree-lines paths as well as fun for the younger ones in the playgrounds. There are also many sport facilities in the area which attract football, baseball and softball lovers. The Druso, Talvera and S.Antonio bridges are the three main links over the stream, but there are also some footbridges allowing for short or long round trips, on foot or by bicycle.

A place of energy with views of Sciliar, Catinaccio and Latemar.

Titschenwarte is an absolute insider’s tip and a pure place of energy: After a short hike you reach this unique viewpoint with breathtaking views of the Dolomites - Sciliar, Catinaccio and Latemar.

The comprehensive exhibition of agricultural tools and equipment warmly invites you to immerse yourself in the South Tyrolean farming life from yesterday to today - side by side with the sturdy Haflingers. The exhibits were collected, cleaned, restored, catalogued, and meticulously labeled over many years with devoted care by the riflemen of Jenesien on farm and field, in order to rescue them from decay and oblivion. In a time of the most modern technology, they now make us marvel at the simple means, the ingenuity, and the hard work and sweat with which earlier farming generations secured the survival of their own families, as well as of whole villages and towns. An exciting, richly detailed museum for young and old!
