Tour of the city of Kufstein and its medieval Fortress

Spend a memorable day in one of the most unusual cities of Tyrol, Kufstein. The main landmark of the city, Kufstein Fortress, standing on the border between German Bavaria and Austrian Tyrol, was called the "Apple of Discord" because of its strategically important location, being constantly fought over for many centuries. Its beauty, however, secured the fortress a different name - the “Pearl of Tyrol” and has inspired generations of artists and architects.

The fortress is one of the largest in Tyrol and is almost completely preserved with its medieval origins and appearance.
