Welcome to Taufers im Münstertal

Simple stone architecture, a fully painted vault and late Romanesque frescoes make this small church from 1220 on the edge of the village a true gem - perfect for moments if stillness and reflection.

Unique in its kind and part of the UNESCO World Heritage since 1983. This well-preserved Carolingian monastery from the early Middle Ages has much to tell. Discover the life and work of the Benedictine nuns who still live here.

Two ruins of former residences rising high above Taufers: Rotund castle, proudly standing at 1500 metres and built around the year 900 by the Bishops of Chur, and Reichenberg castle, once home to a notorious robber knight. 

A quiet, mystical trail where history, wilderness and the power of nature can be felt. Three gnarled giants - 400 to 500 years old - turn this family-friendly tour in the Stilfserjoch National Park into a nature experience for young and old.

Eight churches from different eras combined in one walk. The route from the St. Johann church at the entrance to Taufers to the St. Valentin church in Rifair has much to offer: moments of reflection, nature, history and culture.

If you want to spend a day far away from tourist hustle and bustle, the Avingatal valley is the perfect place. A walk into this untouched high valley promises blooming alpine meadows, sparkling streams and panoramic views that makes nature lovers pause in wonder.

Here, regional crafts and genuine South Tyrolean warmth shine in a festive light. At the weekends during Advent, Taufers becomes a meeting place for the cultures of two countries. Enjoy music, culinary delights and living tradition.
