Innsbruck - Austria

Innsbruck has a population of around 130,000 inhabitants and is both a regional centre and a renowned international destination for sports, culture and education. Innsbruck's geographical location between steep mountain slopes makes it very characteristic. In the north rises the Nordkette, a mountain range that is easily accessible by cable car directly from the centre, and in the south lies Patscherkofel. Innsbruck is a city where history and modernity meet. In the old town, traces of the Habsburg era can be seen, with well-preserved medieval architecture, narrow alleys and buildings in Baroque and Renaissance styles. The most famous is the "Goldenes Dachl" (Golden Roof), a balcony with gilded roof tiles that was built in the 15th century.
