Itinerary
Domplatz, the grand cathedral square, is the starting point of your self-guided tour. Take in the elegant arcades and the lively heart of Brixen's old town.
Brixen Cathedral (Dom), the Baroque landmark on Domplatz, dazzles with its twin towers, frescoed dome and richly decorated interior.
Step into the cathedral cloister, famous for its cycle of Gothic frescoes painted across the vaulted arcades — one of the most important medieval fresco collections in the Alps.
Pass through the Kreuzgangtor, the historic gateway linking the cathedral square to the cloister and the Prince-Bishops' quarter.
The Hofburg, the grand palace of Brixen's Prince-Bishops, showcases the power and wealth of the church rulers who governed the city for centuries.
Stroll the Portici minori, Brixen's smaller arcaded lane, lined with centuries-old merchant houses and shopfronts under vaulted porticoes.
Pause at the Wilde Mann, a historic inn on the Kleine Lauben that has welcomed travellers to Brixen for centuries.
Reach the Porta Sabiona (Sabionertor), the old town gate that once marked the southern entrance to medieval Brixen on the pilgrims' road to Sabiona Abbey.
The White Tower (Weißer Turm) rises over the old town, its colourful clock face and slender spire a defining landmark of Brixen's skyline.
Cross into Stufels, Brixen's oldest quarter, a maze of narrow lanes and historic houses on the far bank of the river.
Linger at Ziggelplatz, a lively little square in the Stufels quarter where locals gather among old townhouses and cafes near the river.
End your walk at the bridge over the Rienz, with views of the rushing river. Take a moment to enjoy the spot before finishing your self-guided tour.
