Innsbruck City Tower
One of the most notable monuments of Innsbruck, the city tower with its rounded, as if inflated reliefs and a potbellied emerald roof evokes memories of the fairy tales of the brothers Grimm. The tower traces its history back to 1450.

Hofburg Palace in Innsbruck
The Hofburg Imperial Palace is an impressive testimony to the might of the Holy Roman Empire, the official residence of the rulers of which it was once. The Hofburg Palace was erected by Archduke Sigmund the Rich around 1460 and received the Gothic look prevailing at that time in architecture.

Golden Roof
Dazzling the eyes of visitors to Innsbruck for the past six centuries, the Golden Roof is a business card and the main attraction of the city. Strictly speaking, this is not a whole roof, but just a covered balcony decorated with two and a half thousand copper petals covered with gold.

Nordkette Cable Car
The Nordkette cable car takes enthusiastic tourists to the top of the Hafelekar Mountain in just a few minutes, looking at Innsbruck from the height of the angels’ flight — 2334 meters. The upper station of the funicular offers stunning panoramic views of the Nordkette mountain range, the Intal Valley and Innsbruck itself.

Ferdinandeum
The Tyrolean State Museum, also called the Ferdinandeum, in honor of the famous collector Archduke Ferdinand, is a vivid and fascinating testimony to the rich history of the region. His various exhibits — from mammoth fossils to Klimt’s paintings — will guide you through the history of Tyrol.

Alpine Zoo
The highest mountain zoo in Europe, the Alpine Zoo in Innsbruck is located at an altitude of 727 meters above sea level. Such an exotic location does not prevent its inhabitants from flourishing and reproducing — there are 150 species of animals represented here.
