ラヴァッレ-ウェンゲン-ラヴァッレの洞窟・トップ6

Even after more than 100 years, remains of the Italian positions from the First World War can still be found here.

Not far from the hamlet of San Martino (St. Martin), southwest of Brunico, this green spot offers a spectacular view of the Pusteria Valley. From here, the eye gets lost in the valley, surrounded by majestic mountains, with the river that winds along the valley. In the distance, Castel di San Michele (Michelsburg) stands out, with its imposing structure that dominates the area.

A magnificent place, a real gift for its location and its Ladin museum, worth a visit!

On a rocky outcrop in the south of St. Lorenzen, the Michelsburg towers into the sky. This castle complex was built in 1091 - so it is not the oldest castle in the valley, but it is certainly one of the most important in the western part of the Puster Valley. In the 15th century, the judges of St. Michelsburg acted at the castle. At that time, the castle was the seat of the Michelsburg court, whose administrative area largely coincided with the parish area. After the founding of the city of Bruneck, the Counts of Gorizia in particular supported the Michelsburg and the town of St. Lorenzen, among other things, to represent a certain balance to the city of Bruneck, which was booming at the time. In 1678, the castle and court passed to the Künigl von Ehrenburg: The castle remained in their possession until 1955. Today the Michelsburg near St. Lorenzen is privately owned. (c) pustertal.org

Unfortunately closed. It would be nice if there were a marked hiking trail up from the valley.

Wonderful place, history, art and landscapes, a fairytale mix to be seen absolutely !!!

Today the Ladin Museum is located in the ancient walls of Thurn Castle in St. Martin in Thurn in the Gadertal.

In about 10 minutes from the lake (or less) to reach this ruin from the First World War. A witness from a martial, dangerous time.
