Bruneck started as two rows of houses back in 1256, but as it was the only town in the Pusteria Valley, the town grew and developed over the years and today it is a prosperous manufacturing and tourist centre. The main street of Brunico in South Tyrol, Italy, the 'Stadtgasse', is one of the best shopping avenues in Northern Italy and the houses date back to the 15th century.
The town of Bruneck is divided into two sections by the river Reinza, on one...
... side is the bustling modern town and the other side is the old historic town.
