Telescopes - a focus on architecture in Parcines and Rablà
Historical sights in the focus
The “Hingucker” viewing platform on the Waalweg of Partschins/Parcines (path along the irrigation channel) gives excellent views of the Parish Church of St. Peter and Paul, a delightful late-Gothic style building with an onion-shaped dome right in the centre of the village.
The second place of interest is Spauregg Castle with its imposing garden paths and beautiful Mediterranean trees and shrubs, including a mighty 45mt. high Mammoth Tree.
The third place of interest lies along the Monte Sole Panorama Path, part of the old Roman via Claudia Augusta, which is the oldest road in the entire Venosta area! You can see a copy of an ancient Roman mile stone at the “Hanswirt”, a post hotel which welcomed travelers in the VIII and X centuries. And, don’t forget to take a look at the late-Gothic St. Jakob’s church which dates back to the year 1513!
