Waldaufkapelle

The Waldaufkapelle in Hall in Tirol is a late Gothic chapel attached to the former town residence of Florian Waldauf von Waldenstein, a Tyrolean court official who assembled one of the most important reliquary collections in 15th-century Austria.

The Waldaufkapelle in Hall in Tirol’s old town contains one of the largest privately assembled reliquary collections in 15th-century Austria: over 400 relics gathered by court official Florian Waldauf with Emperor Maximilian I’s backing, confirmed by papal bull in 1501. The late Gothic chapel is part of the Stiftskirche complex in a well-preserved medieval salt-trade town 10 km from Innsbruck (10 minutes by rail). Plan 30 to 45 minutes; combine with a full Hall in Tirol old town walk.
