Hall in Tirol

Hall in Tirol sits on the Inn River in Tyrol, Austria, where the broad Inn Valley runs between the Karwendel range and mountains to the south. Once one of Tyrol’s principal salt towns, Hall grew prosperous from salt brought down from the nearby Halltal; its name recalls that trade. The compact Altstadt retains arcaded streets, Gothic townhouses and the Münzerturm at Burg Hasegg, home to Hall’s historic mint. In 1486, the mint produced the Guldiner, an important predecessor of the thaler. Hall provides a small-scale historic contrast to nearby Innsbruck.
