Pretty churches and fascinating chapels with wonderful, carved winged altarpieces, frescoes and paintings invite to quiet lingering moments and reflect the religious life in the Dolomites Valley Funes.

Here people hold still tight to their traditions. The traditional Corpus Christi procession involves not only the Funes band, but you can also see the "Schützenkompanie" and the farmer's wives in their traditional festive clothes.

Another custom, which is kept alive from generation to generation, is the traditional return of the cattle from the summer pastures, the so-called "Almabtrieb". This festival refers to the autumn season and the proximity of winter.

The medieval towns of Chiusa/Klausen and Bressanone/Brixen, rich in historical and artistic beauty, invite you to take a walk through the narrow streets and under the arcades.

The numerous small chapels and shrines in the region are evidence of deep-rooted religiosity and traditionalism. Particularly impressive are the small court chapels with beautiful altarpieces, such as in the chapel in Miglanz with a Pietà-representation, or the chapel at Schopplhof whose altarpiece shows the Stations of the Cross. Also worth mentioning is the Holy Sepulchre Chapel in Teis and the St. Michael Chapel of Pizack with its beautiful tabernacle.
