Traveler reviews
Mustafa Arikan
★★★★★5 months agoThis is probably the top sight seeing piece in Innsbruck. Lovely architecture and robust view from the outside. Inside is also very beautiful and peaceful. Of course I lite a candle 🕯️. Recommended.
Bogdan Marcelan
★★★★★a year agoThe cathedral was built in the Baroque period of the 18th century, dedicated to the apostle St. James. According to the plans of the architect Johann Jakob Herkomer, the cathedral was built between 1717 and 1724 on the site of a Romanesque church from the 12th century. When you enter this beautiful church, you are captivated by its rich decoration. There are so many details that you would have needed much more time to see it than we had available.
