 Zillertaler Urgesteine - personalities

The Zillertal is known for its culture and history, which is reflected in its personalities, crafts and the traditions of the region. The Zillertal's "Urgesteinen" include not only musicians, artists and craftsmen, but also athletes, hoteliers and chefs. Through their work, all of these contribute to making the region known and keeping its traditions alive. Craftsmanship, such as woodwork and textile production, has a long history in the valley and is an important part of its cultural heritage. The Zillertal is proud of its rich history and culture and works hard to preserve it for future generations. Learn their stories here.

 

 

Theresa Kröll

In Stumm, Theresa Kröll still hand-produces tailor-made Zillertal folk costumes and Tux loden jackets. Theresa Kröll is one of the very few seamstresses who still make traditional Zillertal folk costumes. When she finished agricultural school, she originally wanted to be a geriatric nurse. However, plan B turned out to be even better: “The tailor’s shop is my true destiny.”

Stefan Wierer

Zillertal mountain guide Stefan Wierer tells the unique story of the oldest refuge in the Zillertal Alps. The Berliner Hütte is located at an altitude of 2024 metres in the heart of the High Mountain Nature Park Zillertal Alps. This architectural and historical jewel was built in 1879 and thus bears witness to the birth of alpinism and alpine tourism.
