Castle sights in Kufstein

  1. Festung Kufstein

    For an insight into Kufstein’s turbulent past, head up to the clifftop Festung Kufstein. The castle dates from 1205 (when Kufstein was part of Bavaria) and was a pivotal point of defence for both Bavaria and Tyrol during the struggles. The round Kaiserturm (Emperor’s Tower) was added in 1522.
