About Pradl
What are the main landmarks in Pradl?
The Tivoli grounds and the Olympia Eisstadion Innsbruck anchor the sporting end of Pradl, and match days fill the streets around them with people who never see the old town at all. Bells have their own museum. The Glockenmuseum Grassmayr keeps a bell collection, while the Audioversum draws visitors to its exhibits on sound.
Church towers mark the older lines: the Pauluskirche, the Dreiheiligenkirche, and the Sieben-Kapellen-Kirche. The Zeughaus stands a short walk away, alongside the Alpine Club Museum and the collections of the Tiroler Landesmuseum in central Innsbruck.
What is the history of Pradl?
Pradl grew as Innsbruck needed room. The Pauluskirche and the Auferstehungskirche were built for parishes formed as the housing spread, and the Sieben-Kapellen-Kirche joined them as the quarter filled. Sport then gave the district a name beyond its own streets, at the Tivoli grounds and the Olympia Eisstadion Innsbruck.
Older Innsbruck sits close. The Zeughaus, the Kapuzinerkloster in Innsbruck, and the Servitenkirche belong to that earlier city, and the Befreiungsdenkmal and Pogromdenkmal record its twentieth century.
Where is Pradl?
Pradl lies between the Innsbruck centre and neighbouring Amras, its streets carrying the Tivoli grounds, the Pauluskirche, and long rows of housing.
