Bressanone, the heart of Valle Isarco, has so much to show you: ready to discover it on a hike, on foot or by bike? A visit to Bressanone is full of culture, nature and gastronomy that feels like a journey through time, between modernity and the vestiges of an important past on display in the old town. The majestic cathedral stands tall over the historic centre of Bressanone, as the landmark of the town whose origins date back to 980 AD.Having survived two fires, the bishop’s church in Bressanone has been renovated several times over the centuries, first in Romanesque style with three naves and two bell towers, then in Baroque style. Traces of the latter can be found in the 33 different types of fine marble decorating the interior. There are also ceiling frescoes covering 200 square metres, the high altar — one of the most prestigious examples of Baroque art in Tyrol — and the organ with over 3,000 pipes. These are only some of the artistic treasures calling you to visit the Cathedral and linger inside for a contemplative moment.
