Did you know that the Passeiertal Valley was once home to noble rulers?
Our historical walk begins in St. Leonhard/S. Leonardo at the tourist information office. From there, we stroll to the parish church dedicated to St. Leonhard. We then continue to Jaufenburg Castle, the former ancestral seat of the Counts of Passeier, who ruled this area in the 13th and 14th centuries. Inside the museum tower, centuries-old frescoes illustrate the life of this noble family. Just below, we visit the Heilig-Kreuz-Kapelle (chapel), completed in 1531. We stop at the Brückenwirt brewery, where refreshments await us before we return to the starting point.

Walking time: approx. 2 h | Difference in altitude: approx. 200 m
