Glurns Town Square
Highlight • Settlement
Today, the Glurns town square is the link between the lower and upper town. The temporarily traffic-calmed square with the two large horse chestnut trees and a drinking water fountain invites you to linger. From the round bench under the tree or from the seats in front of the cafés, you can watch the hustle and bustle in a relaxed manner. On church holidays, processions with flags, statues, bands and deputations from local associations march across the town square to the parish church. On market days and on the occasion of festivals and celebrations, busy social life takes place on the Glurns town square.

Glorenza Church / Glurns Parsonage
Highlight • Religious Site
After 1415, the Order of the Holy Spirit ran a hospital in Glurns and built the hospital church, which passed to the parish in 1534. During the village fire of 1634, the church fell victim to the flames and was consecrated to the Mother of God after the new building in 1665/69.

Malser Gate and the City Walls of Glurns
Highlight • Historical Site
Glurns is located at the transition from Lower to Upper Vinschgau, at the entrance to the Münstertal. The only place in Vinschgau with city rights has a rarely well-preserved Renaissance city fortification from the 16th century with a closed city wall, seven round corner and wall towers (designed as shell towers - open inwards) and 3 gate towers (Münsterer or Tauferer Tor, Schludernser Tor [Spatzenturm] and Malser Tor).
All components have interesting structural details (covered battlements, embrasures, cast iron windows, gate guides).
The first city fortifications from the second half of the 13th century were demolished along with the city in 1499; only the Sparrow Tower remained largely intact.
The city wall separates the city into a so-called inner city and an outer city.
