Innsbruck's Hofburg, often referred to as the Tyrolean sister of Vienna's magnificent House of Habsburg, is a fascinating piece of history. The era of Maria Theresa, in particular, left its mark here and should not be ignored by anyone interested. Those familiar with the history of the dynasty can better understand the significance of this place. Admittedly, there are palaces in Austria that exude more glamour. But the Hofburg has its own special charm. The magnificent halls, large-format paintings, and breathtaking frescoes tell stories from times long past and invite you to immerse yourself deeply in history. The private chambers of Empress Elisabeth and Emperor Franz Joseph are particularly fascinating. Although the Empress rarely stayed here, her name still attracts many visitors. And the Hofburg's location is simply impressive – located in the heart of Innsbruck, it blends harmoniously into the cityscape. The exhibition can be explored at a leisurely pace without a guided tour, offering the opportunity to linger in the historic setting and absorb the atmosphere. A visit that brings history to life!

Very elegant hotel and very expensive.

IMPERIAL HOFBURG In 1500 the Hofburg Innsbruck was completed under Emperor Maximilian I (1459-1519). It already had the same dimensions as today and was captured by Albrecht Dürer as a watercolor. You can see a late Gothic inner courtyard with a covered staircase, the coat of arms tower and the women's chambers, called "Frauenzimmer". There was a large reception room, which was designed as a hall with columns and vaults and is now known as the "Gothic Cellar". A "Kürnstube" in which Maximilian's hunting trophies were housed, a "Silverkammer" (treasury) and a banquet hall (with depictions of Hercules) have also been preserved. The "racing ground" in front of the Hofburg served as a tournament venue for the sports-loving emperor. Almost 250 years later, Maria Theresa (1717-1780) visited the Imperial Hofburg Innsbruck and felt that it was no longer up to date. Since 1665 there were no more Tyrolean sovereigns and the governors, who now ruled Tyrol on behalf of the Emperor, lived on the first floor (Lieutenancy). The state rooms on the second floor, which were reserved for the Imperial Family, remained uninhabited. The ruler ordered a renovation in the Viennese late baroque style and sent her best artists to Innsbruck: Konstantin von Walter and Nicolaus Parcassi. Martin van Meytens and his school as well as Franz Anton Maulbertsch were commissioned to furnish the interior. The renovation work was interrupted by the Seven Years' War and lasted until the 1870s.

The Hofburg in Innsbruck is a residence built and inhabited by the Habsburgs. Originally a castle from the late Middle Ages, it was expanded into a castle in the early modern period and was the seat of the Tyrolean sovereigns as well as the residence of various members of the dynasty until the founding of the republic in 1918. The current state is based on the extensions under Empress Maria Theresa by the Hofbaumeister Johann Martin Gumpp the Younger in rococo style and can partly be visited. The first hostel on this site was used by Duke Leopold III. These and other properties were bought by his son Friedrich IV, whose son Archduke Sigmund der Münzreich, Count of Tyrol, had a medieval castle built. His successor, the Roman-German King and later Emperor Maximilian I, expanded the complex. In 1534 the ceiling of the giant hall, which was renovated in 1510, was destroyed by fire and then restored by King Ferdinand I. Due to earthquake damage to the walls, the castle facade was reinforced with semicircular towers in 1536. Only Maria Theresa, who ruled from 1740 to 1780, gave the order for the renovation in the style of courtly Viennese Rococo. This is how the magnificent building still presents itself today. Maria Theresia was only twice in Innsbruck, in 1739 in transit and in 1765 for the wedding of her son Leopold II. To the Spanish Princess Maria Ludovica, which the Triumphal Gate at the end of Maria-Theresien-Straße commemorates. The wedding was overshadowed by the death of her husband Franz Stephan von Lothringen (as a result of a stroke) on August 18, 1765. The death room was converted into a chapel on behalf of the Empress. At that time she also had the aristocratic women's monastery in Innsbruck built there. The canons had to pray for the deceased emperor. Members of the imperial family used the castle until the end of the monarchy in 1918, it was also the seat of the Tyrolean sovereigns and is now owned by the Republic of Austria.
