Beautiful and very compact in size compared to the Duomo. To visit.

Everything is special in South Tyrol

Alexander Lirsch (5 years ago)
Beautiful newly renovated church with Gothic and Baroque style elements. In the cemetery next to it there are interesting Gothic tombs, including that of Oswald von Wolkenstein.

Gabriele Busnelli (5 years ago)
Perhaps even more beautiful than the adjacent Cathedral, more austere in its traditional South Tyrolean architecture.

Great building in a beautiful square

Château du Lude

The Château du Lude is one of the many great châteaux of the Loire Valley in France. Le Lude is the most northerly château of the Loire Valley and one of the last important historic castles in France, still inhabited by the same family for the last 260 years. The château is testimony to four centuries of French architecture, as a stronghold transformed into an elegant house during the Renaissance and the 18th century. The monument is located in the valley of Le Loir. Its gardens have evolved throughout the centuries.
