The sunken church tower in Lake Reschen

Description

Explore the history behind the landmark of the Vinschgau Valley, the sunken church tower in Lake Reschen, on a walk or a bike ride. However, the Reschensee is considered a real insider tip, especially among kite surfers!

The tower in the lake - the landmark of Vinschgau is both fairytale-like and fascinating: a sunken church tower rises lonely out of the 6 km long, clear Reschensee lake, in front of the mountain backdrop of the rustic Langtauferer valley. But the story behind the well-known postcard motif, the "tower in the lake", is far less idyllic: the Romanesque little church from the 14th century is a silent witness to an irresponsible lake damming shortly after the end of the Second World War.
