San Vigilio di Marebbe

Ladin culture and tradition in the Dolomite mountains.

> Altitude: 1,285 metres above sea level

In the recent decades San Vigilio has become a popular holiday resort, even though agriculture and handicraft are still dominating the quarters Marebbe Parrocchia and Rina. The “Museum Ladin Ciastel de Tor” at Thurn Castle introduces you to the Ladin culture and history…

In the centre of the village you can admire the bronze statue of Catarina Lanz, the Ladin version of Jeanne d’Arc. In 1797 she bravely fought in the battle of Spinga against Napoleon and the French troops to protect the local church and cemetery.

> We suggest: What about tasting a typical Ladin dish such as “tultres” or “gnoch da zigher” and a visit at the nature park information centre?
