Tyrol & Trentino - Churches, Castles & Collections in Italy & Austria
- Secreted in mountain valleys or tucked among the arcaded streets and painted façades of the towns, this part of the Alps has a remarkably rich array of art and architecture.
- Particularly noteworthy are the churches and frescoes of the early Middle Ages, with the Renaissance era another strong theme.
- The mountain and upland scenery is a constant and consistently beautiful backdrop.
- Only after World War I was Tyrol split into North and South, Italy acquiring the southern slopes at the expense of Austria.
- German is still the majority language, however, and the unity of the region as a whole (and the unimportance of modern boundaries) are clearly demonstrated by finishing the tour in Innsbruck, the former capital of the region, once an appanage of the Habsburgs.
