Kiens - Chienes

Kiens–Chienes lies along the Rienza River in South Tyrol’s Puster Valley, where a broad Alpine corridor is enclosed by wooded slopes and routes leading toward the Dolomites. The municipality includes Chienes, San Sigismondo/St. Sigmund, Casteldarne/Ehrenburg and Corti/Hofern, reflecting the region’s German and Italian place names. Above the valley, the ruins of Schöneck Castle are traditionally associated with the medieval poet and singer Oswald von Wolkenstein. The Rienza continues east through the Puster Valley toward Bruneck, placing Kiens–Chienes firmly within South Tyrol’s mountain geography.
