More beautiful windows at Innsbruck Austria


In the lovely Old Town of Innsbrück 
    
Beautiful windows everywhere along the old street…
  
At one end of Herzog-Friedrich-Strasse stands its oldest preserved building, the Ottoburg, a Gothic residential tower built by the city wall in the 15th century.  Its gray facade is brightened up by red and white shutters. Although both the purpose and the owners of the building have changed frequently throughout the years, the Ottoburg has long housed an excellent restaurant, the historic Ottoburg which first opened its doors to customers in the year 1745. It serves traditional Tyrolean specialties.
