Defreggergasse

The picturesque village centre of Villanders was the model for the painting "Das letzte Aufgebot" by the painter Franz Defregger. The alley characterises the village and is also worth a visit.

Villanders Adventure Mine on the Pfunderer Mountain

The adventure mine at Pfunderer Berg near Villanders (South Tyrol) was one of the most important mining areas in Tyrol in the Middle Ages. After it was closed down at the beginning of the 20th century, it fell into oblivion. The mine at Pfunderer Berg has been renovated in recent years and is now one of the few mines in South Tyrol that can be visited by the public.
