    Here you can see the Tyrol Castle as well
    to the Brunnenburg.


    Welcome to Tirol Castle, the residential castle of the Counts of Tyrol. The castle gave the state of Tyrol its name. Aspects of the country's history and rulership are combined here in a clear way. From the outer bailey of Tyrol Castle you have an impressive view of the Etsch Valley and the Vinschgau. Here you will feel like you have been transported back to a distant time when the Counts of Tyrol were the masters of this area.

      The Brunneburg was built in 1250 by Wilhelm Tarant on a glacial rubble cone below Tyrol Castle. In 1356 the princely administrator of the Bishopric of Trent, Heinrich von Bopfingen, acquired it; he was pastor of Tyrol, envoy of Ludwig of Brandenburg and until 1359 also governor of Tyrol. In 1421 it was acquired by Ulrich Putsch, chaplain of Duke Frederick with his empty pockets, who later became a patron of art and science as Bishop of Brixen. In 1457 the castle came into the possession of Hans Kripp. It belonged to this Hall family for three and a half centuries. In 1705, Gregor Hofer built a house with a barn and gate at the foot of the castle rock using the “high wall tips” that still existed from the ruins. In 1884 the Brunnenburggut came into the hands of the mayor of Dorf Tirol, Michael Sonnenburger.

        In 1903 he sold the castle to the entrepreneur Karl Schwickert from Pforzheim, who had it rebuilt. After his death in 1927, the castle fell into disrepair again until the de Rachewiltz family took up residence there and over time turned the castle into a center for cultural encounters. The American poet Ezra Pound completed his life's work, the Cantos, here from 1958 to 1962.
