square in Hall in Tirol

Oberer Stadtplatz

The Oberer Stadtplatz (Upper Town Square) is the main market square of Hall in Tirol, a medieval salt-trading town on the Inn River east of Innsbruck whose historic center is better preserved and far less visited than its neighbor.

The Oberer Stadtplatz is the main square of Hall in Tirol, 15 minutes from Innsbruck by S-Bahn but with almost none of the tourist density. Hall was the site where the Tyrolean mint struck the Guldiner in 1486, the large silver coin that established the coin type that evolved into the Thaler and eventually the dollar. The square is surrounded by the Gothic Pfarrkirche, the Rathausturm, and intact medieval residential architecture. Free access; by S3 S-Bahn from Innsbruck (15 minutes).
