In Gsiesertal Valley-Welsberg-Taisten, history is part of many places you visit: from the medieval walls of Welsperg Castle to historic buildings such as the former main water supply station of the Southern Railway and the birthplace of Baroque painter Paul Troger, born in Welsberg in 1698. Churches and chapels also tell stories of the region's past. One notable example is St Erasmus Chapel, with its frescoes by Simon von Taisten.
Over the centuries, farming life, the development of the villages and historical figures such as Father Joachim Haspinger and Paul Troger have all left their mark. Their stories reveal how the region has developed and what continues to shape it today.
Many of these reminders of the past have been preserved, bringing the history of Welsberg, Taisten and Gsiesertal Valley into everyday view. Look a little closer and you'll discover a region where traces of its history remain part of the present.
