St. Laurentius Church

Highlight • Religious Site

St. Laurentius Church in Wattens, also known as the Old Parish Church, is a significant building with a long history. A predecessor church may have stood on this site as early as the 7th century, and it was first documented in 1318. A new late Gothic building was constructed around 1500, but was destroyed in a fire in 1809. Between 1810 and 1811, the church was rebuilt in the Neo-Classical style and consecrated in 1820, preserving certain Gothic elements, such as the west portal. The characteristic tower with its onion dome was added in 1834. The interior features impressive frescoes by Joseph Schöpf, a Neo-Classical high altar, and the Pflüger organ. The church is not only a listed building but also has spiritual significance, for example, through the memorial to Father Jakob Gapp, who was murdered in 1943. Today it shapes the townscape of Wattens and is an important religious and cultural center of the region.

Wattens Legend Park
Since 1999, the Tyrolean Legends and Fairy Tales Festival has been held in the market town of Wattens. Its aim is to preserve an old Tyrolean cultural heritage from oblivion, passed down orally through generations by our ancestors – the world of Tyrolean sagas, myths, and legends – the stuff of dreams, and which now attracts over 5,000 visitors annually to Wattens Wattenberg from all over Tyrol and neighboring countries.


The idea for the Wattens Legend Park was born in 2007. The plan is to display the most striking Tyrolean legendary figures year-round as an open-air museum, complete with scholarly explanations from the University of Innsbruck. The first two figures – the giant Haymon and the Sill Dragon – were created in 2007, followed by the "Fiery Dog" in 2008.

Wattens

Highlight • Settlement

The tranquil market town of Wattens is located in the Tyrolean Lower Inn Valley. There are several places to stop for refreshments and accommodation as well as an outdoor swimming pool. The Warrenbach flows through the town and flows into the Inn shortly afterwards.

Watten is also the headquarters of the crystal company Swarovski. If you have time, you can visit the Crystal Worlds in the town. You can find all the information here: kristallwelten.swarovski.com/Content.Node/wattens/index.en.html.
