𝐁𝐫𝐢𝐱𝐞𝐧, Italy is a South Tyrolean town famed for its prominent secular history. On this walking tour we take you through Brixen’s Old Town gate to explore everything from its hidden cobbled streets to its monumental religious landmarks.

Take this walking tour of 𝐁𝐫𝐢𝐱𝐞𝐧, a bishopric town hidden between the mystical mountains in 𝐒𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐡 𝐓𝐲𝐫𝐨𝐥, 𝐈𝐭𝐚𝐥𝐲. Between its secular history which dates back to 901 AD and its heritage as an Alpine town of Northern 𝐈𝐭𝐚𝐥𝐲, Brixen boasts a blend of history, architecture, and culture that can’t be found elsewhere. As we walk beneath the gates of the Old Town, down the cobbled streets, past the palazzos and piazzas, and along the Isarco River, expect to be blown away by beguiling 𝐁𝐫𝐢𝐱𝐞𝐧. From landmarks like the Cathedral of Brixen to its subtle charms like the creeping ivy walls, this walking tour will guide you to all of Brixen’s best bits.
