Golden Roof
The landmark of the city of Innsbruck - here you will also find the history of the roof and its builder, Maximilian I.
Unfortunately, Golden Roof hasn't added any spaces to their profile on The Vendry.
Between 1497 and 1500, Emperor Maximilian I had the Golden Roof, a magnificent dungeon covered with 2,657 gilded copper shingles in the late Gothic style, built on the southern front of the government building known as the "Neuhof". Nikolaus Türing the Elder is considered the master builder and creator of the reliefs. The fresco decoration is attributed to Jörg Kölderer, the court painter of Emperor Maximilian I. The special quality of this building was not recognized until late. For a long time it led a rather inconspicuous existence, among other things as an administration building and barracks. Only towards the end of the 19th century, with the start of tourism in Tyrol, did the magnificent bay window become a symbol of the city of Innsbruck.
