About location

Tucked into Tyrol’s Alpbach valley, Gemeinde Alpbach is a place whose character is shaped by steep Alpine pastures and dispersed farmsteads. The settlement lies in the Kitzbühel Alps, where Gamskopf and Großer Beil form part of the surrounding mountain terrain. Alpbach has long been associated with mountain farming, an everyday heritage explored at the Bergbauernmuseum. Timber balconies, sloping roofs and a carefully maintained traditional building style give the village a distinctive identity, while meadows and wooded slopes extend around its centre. The annual European Forum Alpbach gives this rural Tyrolean community an international intellectual role, bringing together voices from science, politics and society. Paths and roads lead onward to pastures, mountain routes and the wider Alpbachtal region.

Tyrol
Region Tyrol

Tyrol combines an energetic alpine identity with an established urban culture in a way that reflects its position within the central Eastern Alps. Innsbruck, the regional capital on the River Inn, lies beneath the Nordkette range and brings imperial-era architecture into close contact with high mountain terrain. Its Golden Roof remains one of the city’s best-known historic landmarks, while the surrounding valleys connect settlements, ski areas and hiking country across the region.

Country Austria

Austria stretches from the Bohemian Massif along its northern edge to the Carnic Alps on the Italian border, encompassing high Alpine ranges and the Danube lowlands. The Danube links cities including Linz and Vienna, while the Grossglockner, at 3,798 metres, is the country’s highest mountain. Vienna developed for centuries as the seat of the Habsburg court, leaving imperial architecture around the Hofburg and Schönbrunn Palace. Salzburg is closely associated with Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, who was born there in 1756. Alpine Tyrol, wine-growing areas east of Vienna and the lakes of Salzkammergut add markedly different regional identities.
