The lens captures the facades of historical buildings and the famous landmark itself.Innsbruck, whose webcams are available on the site, is known throughout the world as the mecca of ski tourism.
It is in the vicinity of this Austrian city that there are many famous resorts with a total length of 280 km of quality trails. Considering that the Winter Olympic Games have been held here twice, the infrastructure for outdoor activities in winter is really well developed here.Innsbruck's most famous landmark shines in the heart of the historic old town and is called the Golden Roof.
The magnificent alcove balcony gets its name from the 2,657 fire-gilt copper tiles that adorn the roof. The building has reigned over medieval houses and shady arcades for over 500 years. It was built by Emperor Maximilian, who was very fond of enjoying the view. From the windows of the upper floors, he looked down at the colorful bustle of his city, watched the jousting tournaments.The glittering Golden Roof can be seen at the entrance to the historic old town, but it's also worth seeing up close. The structure under the roof is richly decorated with a wide variety of figures and images, including many curiosities. For example, the facade of the building is decorated with a man and two wives: Emperor Maximilian is depicted next to his wife of that time, Bianca Maria Sforza. However, he did not really like her, and that is why his first wife, Maria von Burgund, also peeks out of the relief. Another attraction: small men with twisted limbs. These are the Morisco dancers who were actually the breakdancers of the Middle Ages. The Golden Roof is a must for anyone visiting Innsbruck.
Webcams can be viewed online to enjoy the picturesque views of the area.
Not so far from the Golden Roof is the Court Church. It is also known as the "Church of Schwartzmander" thanks to the 28 life-size bronze figures that stand guard over the tomb of Emperor Maximilian I. Strange but true: the eight "Black Men" (Schwartzmander) are actually women, and the emperor's tomb is empty , because in fact he is buried in Wiener Neustadt. When visiting the church, you need to go to the Silver Chapel. Two famous people from Innsbruck are buried here: Archduke Ferdinand II and his wife Filipina Welser, who was a local superstar during her lifetime. They were also considered: the “Queen of Hearts”, an expert in herbs and just a beauty who was even accused of witchcraft with evil tongues. A magnificent silver alter and Madonna by the imperial architect Giovanni Lucchese is the main feature of the room, along with another special piece: an organ with pipes made entirely of wood.More details
