History, infrastructure and sights

Kranebitten already existed in the 14th century, in 1402 it was first mentioned as Krembittach . The name is derived from Kranawitt ( ahd. Chranawittu ), a common expression for juniper in the Bavarian language area . After the creation of the local communities in 1849/50, Kranebitten belonged to the community of Hötting and was incorporated into Innsbruck in 1938. Today, Kranebitten is still somewhat independent outside of the Innsbruck settlement unit and still has a certain village character, even though there are already multi-storey buildings here. Especially since the construction of the Mittenwaldbahn stop above the village in 1910–1912, construction activity began there too. In 1947 the airport Kranebitten was built on the Ulfiswiese on the Inn. The barracks , named after the Imperial and Royal Standschützen , was built in 1982–1985 and is now a garrison of the staff battalion of the 6th Jäger Brigade , the mountain brigade of the Austrian Armed Forces .

The Innsbruck campsite is of major tourist and economic importance today . Nevertheless, the place is increasingly suffering from structural weakness and tries to emancipate itself within Hötting West.

The entire area north of the town, including Kranebitter gorge and Martin Wall , part of the conservation area Martin Wall Solstein-Reitherspitze ; ( LSG 29/1989 ), and thus to the nature park and European protected area Alpenpark Karwendel  ( AT3304000 , FFH and bird protection ). The Kranebitter Innau is also - particularly strictly - protected ; ( SSG 44/2005 ), which together with the Völser Innau forms the last remnant of the Innauen around Innsbruck.
