Heiligenblut am Grossglockner

Built around medieval gold-mining activity, Heiligenblut am Grossglockner grew into an Alpine village on the southern side of the Hohe Tauern, beneath Austria’s highest mountain, the Grossglockner. The village is closely associated with the Grossglockner High Alpine Road, whose Carinthian end lies here and which crosses the mountains toward Salzburg. Its late-Gothic parish church of St Vincent, set below the high peaks, is a defining local landmark. Walking routes lead into Hohe Tauern National Park, while the Pasterze glacier lies on the Grossglockner’s eastern side.
