Holiday in Villabassa

Hotels Villabassa

If you attach great importance to tradition and customs, if you know how to appreciate culture and history and you are interested in the beauty of winter and summer mountain landscapes as well as sports, then Niederdorf/Villabassa is the place you are looking for.

Our family-friendly holiday resort has much to offer in the winter and during summer months. Picturesque footpaths will lead you to mountain slopes around. If you wish, you can explore nature in the winter with a pair snowshoes or take advantage of the many ski tours and cross-country ski-paths to re-establish your own interior balance.
The Wassermann House, a former manor in the town centre of Niederdorf/Villabassa, serves nowadays as the Tourism Museum. Here you will find original artefacts from the period when spa tourism was in full bloom and distinguished individuals frequently resided in Alta Pusteria's luxurious spa hotels.

The parish church of St. Stephan was built in the late Baroque style in 1792-1796. Here frescos by Franz Altmutter, sculptures by Nißl and an altar painting by Martin Knoller, who studied under the Baroque painter Paul Troger, may be admired. The high altar and the two side altars consist of simple, austere columns.
A Gothic-style twofold chapel dating from the 15th century is located to the left of the steps of the church. The lower part of it is occupied by the Chapel of the Deceased, while St. Anne's Chapel is found above. A fresco by Simon von Taisten may be seen in the Chapel of the Deceased.
St. Anne's Chapel features a regularly shaped stellar vault with round archstones. The twofold chapel is one of the oldest buildings in all of Val Pusteria.
