Reutte

城市概覽

The centre of commerce for the Außerfern, Reutte is a vibrant, historic and charming place that can be easily reached from nearby 1 Füssen and many of the holiday villages surrounding Reutte. Reutte and its environs are characterized by the grand Alpine mountains of the region (Lechtaler Alps, Tannheimer and Ammer Mountain ranges) and many family farms. Agriculture and small shop ownership remain the primary means of employment for many of those living in or near Reutte.

Reutte as an entity was first referred to as "Reutte near Breitenwang" as early as the 13th century. As roads became built and improved over the centuries and a bridge over the lech River was completed (1464), Reutte became known as a central trade district for the region. By 1488, it was given the right to conduct a weekly market. In 1491, Reutte was granted the status of a free town by Emperor Maximillian 1. In 1604, the fortress castle Ehrenburg (which sits atop a mountain overlooking Reutte) was given to Reutte. Reutte became the capital city of the 'upper Inn Valley' in 1754 and many smaller villages fell under the governance of what was growing into the 'Bezirk (region) Reutte'. This growth has continued over the years until today, as Bezirk Reutte now encompasses 37 villages and towns.

當地交通

To get a general idea of Reutte and any locale you may visit, it is always handy to have a good city map (Stadtplan) on hand to help guide your way. You may find a Reutte Stadtplan at: [1].

On foot It is not viable to hike from Reutte to many places, as they are separated by many kilometres. However, there are many good hiking trails for recreation, if combined with another transportation method.

By bike You can rent or borrow bikes for use on the plentiful biking trails (Radwanderwegen). For this option, make sure that you have a good map, and are in good physical condition. With the lack of good landmarks, and plentiful paths, it is easy to become lost. Be warned that there are some places where biking a short distance along the highway is required to rejoin the trails. If you have to do this, ride on the right, as far to side as possible. Be careful, go as fast as you can safely, and have faith: German and Austrian drivers are generally cautious and skillful. Be sure to watch for the next possible point to exit the road.

By car Reutte is small, however you will find many travellers have cars in order to access the sites.

必看景點

1 Ehrenberg Ruins/Schloßkopf. The Ehrenberg castle ruins (three/four different castle ruins) provide a contrast to the highly touristed Königschlosser in nearby Bavaria. There is a small tourist village by the parking lot for these castles, but this can be avoided by taking a trail from the south of the parking lot (obscure), or by taking the trail north from nearby Ehenbichl. You will encounter a semi-strenuous moderately steep hike up to the Ehrenberg ruins (Burgruine Ehrenberg). If you are lucky, this small hike will have kept away enough people to allow you to have the ruins nearly completely to yourself. Enjoy the moment, it is so rare to see history as it is to have hands on access to a historical site without it being roped off or accessible by guided tour only. [2]. Move on next to the Castle Schloßkopf (Festung Schloßkopf), on top of the hill. Perhaps you have seen this lit up at night on top of the ridge. The trail is steep once again, and it will take 30 minutes to reach the top, but it is again more than worth it to have a castle to yourself or with few others. The views from here are spectacular, allowing you to look out over the entire valley and into Germany.

體驗活動

If you are in this area during the Summer months, you may want to explore Ehrenberg during the time of the famous Ritterspiel, the Medieval festival [3]. Although very touristy and even a bit kitsch, the festival is a splendid way to spend a day or two watching jousts and parades, attending concerts and having an overall enjoyable family holiday in the mountains. Of course, the view from atop the mountain overlooking Reutte is quite spectacular. Be sure to see the many beautiful churches and chapels in and near Reutte. Many reflect the beautiful Gothic and Baroque architectural influences that dominate the region. The Museum in the Green House, Untermarkt 25, A-6600, ☏ +43 5672-72304, [email protected]. One of Reutte's (and the entire region's) cultural jewels. The building itself is quite a treasure. It was first built in the second half of the 16th century. "Das Grüne Haus" was expanded upon and renovated from the 18th through the 20th centuries. It has been under Reutte's administration since 1986 and has become both a museum of local history (Heimatmuseum) as well as a center for visual arts and exhibitions. You can contact them for opening times and current exhibitions. Take a walk through the center of historic Reutte. Most of the buildings you will see are centuries old; some bedecked with beautiful Luftlmalerei; paintings that give the impr
