About the event

Experience the Franzensfeste Fortress in an exciting night tour

On 31 August we invite you to a very special experience: explore the fortress with us at night and experience its magic in a completely new light, in the soft glow of torches and candles.

Imagine climbing together up the underground stairs to the High Fortress. Darkness surrounds you, only the soft light of your torches. It is in the dark that the walls of the fortress tell the most fascinating stories. Our experienced guides accompany you and tell you about the origins and turbulent history of this fortress, as you slowly ascend, step by step.
After 452 steps, you finally reach Fort Alto. The view from up there is simply overwhelming. The dark valley below you comes to life, illuminated by the lights of the Lower Fort. The guided tour promises unforgettable moments.

Places are limited, so make sure you attend early!
