Lienz Unmissables

Lienz serves as the cultural and alpine hub of East Tyrol, centered around the 13th-century Schloss Bruck and the historic Liebburg palace. The town's architecture spans from the medieval Franciscan Friary to the 17th-century towers on the main square. Outdoor landmarks like the Hochsteinhütte at 2,023 meters and the Venedigerwarte offer extensive views of the Lienz Dolomites, while sites such as the Kosakenfriedhof provide significant historical context regarding the region's 20th-century past.
