Town Hall / Trading House, Schwaz The Schwaz Town Hall, built in 1970, was originally constructed between 1500 and 1509 by the Stöckl family of industrialists. After their bankruptcy, it was acquired in 1563 by the Tyrolean sovereign. From then on, it served as the seat of the mining authority. Following the decline of mining in Schwaz, the building was sold to the merchant Bartholomäus Penz. He commissioned Christoph Anton Mayr to paint the facade in 1760. In 1916, Ludwig Penz created the bronze figure of Georg von Frundsberg on the right corner of the building.

Nice little old town, opportunities for a break.

The characteristic architecture of the town hall testifies to a late Gothic style. A special feature of the town hall is its painted façade, which features elaborate decorations and frescoes. The inner courtyard of the town hall is adorned with Gothic arcade windows overgrown with Virginia creeper. A figure supposedly depicting Jörg von Frundsberg (one of the town's founders) stands at the corner of the building.

Part of the path has collapsed. It's impassable. You have to carry your bike over rocks and the stream. It's doable, but difficult.

Komoot sent us from the Inntal Cycle Path up to the bridge. No sooner said than done. But be careful, there's only an old, worn-out ramp up here, so you'll have to push or carry it; it's very steep!
