Lienz

The landscape around Stadt Lienz is a broad Alpine basin framed by the Lienz Dolomites and the Hohe Tauern, a setting that has shaped both the town’s compact form and its role as East Tyrol’s regional centre. The Isel meets the Drava here, bringing water from the Tauern into a town with an unusually open valley-floor setting. Above the centre, 13th-century Schloss Bruck was the residence of the Counts of Gorizia and now houses the Museum of East Tyrol. Lienz is also a practical base for routes into the surrounding mountain valleys, while its centre retains the scale of a Tyrolean district town.
