It’s that time of the year again: Vipiteno, the beautiful Fugger city, is bathed by a warm light. Bright decorations, candles and Christmas trees bring life to the city. The scent of Zelten (traditional sweet fruit bread), Stollen (Christmas cake) and cinnamon fill the air. Hand-carved nativity scenes, the traditional Christmas Tree decorations from local craftsmen, and much more. Every day angels open a new window of the Advent calendar, and people can visit “Torre delle Dodici” (Tower of Twelve O’clock), the symbol of Vipiteno. Warm mulled wine for adults and a mix of soft apple fruit drinks for the younger ones are of course a must.
