Discover narrow alleyways, charming squares, "talking" signs, and the main sights of the largest old town in Tyrol. City tours take place on Monday, Thursday, and Saturday at 10:00 AM.

The 700-year-old town is located 10 km east of Innsbruck and was the largest and most significant town in North Tyrol during the Middle Ages. Rich salt deposits allowed the town to flourish as early as the 13th century. When in the 15th century the princely mint from Meran in South Tyrol was moved to Hall, the importance of the town grew further. In the year 1486, the first thaler in the world was minted in Hall.

At the center of the old town is one of the most beautiful squares in Austria, the Upper Town Square. Noteworthy are the late Gothic parish church of St. Nicholas, the town hall, and the Magdalene Chapel.

Walk among alpacas through the winter landscape in the Grubetal at Volderberg. The snow crunches under your feet, the scent of the forest and fresh fir trees fills the air, and with a bit of luck, it begins to snow lightly. The alpaca by your side brings you tranquility, allowing you to fully enjoy your walk.

How beautiful giving can be!

Giving should bring joy. To the recipient just as much as to the giver. But then there's the question: What on earth should I give? The Guldiner is the perfect gift for any occasion. Whether family, friends, or employees: With the genuine gift coin made of alpacca silver, you make wishes come true. The Guldiner is gladly accepted in numerous businesses in the Hall-Wattens region and its unlimited validity is guaranteed.

Together we will conjure up an apple strudel made from primarily regional ingredients using stretched strudel dough, and enjoy the typical Austrian pastry afterwards with a cup of coffee.
As it is well known, love goes through the stomach!

A journey through the mystical time between the years!

A special tradition during the Christmas season in Tyrol and the Alpine region is "smudging" or as they beautifully say in the dialect "rachign gian". These twelve holy nights have a particularly strong attraction for people. Many of us know the sayings at Christmas or New Year's like "Don't wash laundry or hang it out to dry" or "keep the wheels still". But what exactly does it mean? Accordingly, the Hall-Wattens tourism association offers a very special tour on this topic.

An exciting themed tour: In the medieval mining and trading town of Hall, bakers, millers, and butchers played a central role in supplying the population. Even today, street names inside and outside the city walls remind us of blacksmiths and wagon makers, locksmiths, tanners, and coopers. The carnival with the Fasserrössl also brings long-forgotten times back to life. Good luck!
