Theme path: The story of the Höhlensteintal/Val di Landro valley - Description
To commemorate the First World War, the municipality of Toblach/Dobbiaco and the Province of South Tyrol want to use this themed path to remember the diverse, interesting and eventful history of the Höhlensteintal/Val di Landor valley. In order to show this story, suitable sculptures were erected at 4 locations, which evoke associations with the topics of traffic & travel, view of the Three Peaks, tourism & alpinism and war & defense and make these easily understandable for everyone.
Transport & Travel: There is an abstract locomotive on the former railway line, as a reminder of the Dolomite Railway, which operated here from 1921-1964. At the same time, the history of the railways and traffic is dealt with.
View of the Tree Peaks: The portal on the street as an eye-catcher and the covered wooden platform are the actual starting point and thus the most important part of the themed path concept. At this station, the topics of the Dolomites UNESCO World Heritage, the Three Peaks Nature Park and mountaineering history are dealt with, with the pioneer Paul Grohmann, who set out from the Höhlensteintal valley on August 21, 1869 to climb the Three Peaks for the first time.
Tourism & Alpinism: A stagecoach with information on the successful and later tragically ending tourism history of the Postgasthof and later Grandhotel Baur is a reminder of tourism. At this point, the ruins of the hotel complex, which was unfortunately completely uselessly blown up due to the impending war in 1915, are still visible. The chapel alone was spared at that time.
War & Defense: A steel sculpture in the form of an armored personnel carrier is located at the location of the huge fortress from 1884, which was built by the Austro-Hungarian Empire and taken over by Italy after 1919. In 1942 it was supplemented with extensive bunkers.
