Gfrill ( Italian name: Cauria ) is a fraction of the municipality of Salurn in South Tyrol . Some houses in Gfrill belong to the Neumarkt municipality . The village is located high above the Adige Valley at around 1,330 m above sea level, around six kilometers northeast and over 1,000 meters above Salurn.

Surname
The place name is first documented in 1298 as Gaueril and subsequently in 1340 as if Cafril and can be traced back to the Latin name caprile for "sheepfold", which suggests that the area was used for livestock and grazing from the late Middle Ages.
history
The hilltop settlement in the wooded area east above the valley floor of Salurn evidently emerged during the inland colonization of the 13th century. From the beginning it belonged to the district court of Salurn, which Count Meinhard II of Tyrol-Görz had established on the southern border of the County of Tyrol in the transition area to the Hochstift Trento . According to the wisdom of the Salurn court of 1403, the Gfriller farmers ( "the Cafriller" ) had to pay wood taxes to the Salurn cellar office . The same wisdom also mentions a number of farms , some of which have since been abandoned, such as Röll (Unterstein), Kerschbaum, Erlach / Erler, Gagers, Lochrach, Stauder / Staudach, Bruggneid, Flatsch and Leiter bei Haberla.
Attractions
