geography

Laurein

The municipality of Laurein is located in the upper Non Valley , more precisely on the Deutschnonsberg , as the German-speaking area of the valley is called. Together with the neighboring municipality of Proveis , Laurein protrudes as a South Tyrolean spur into the otherwise Italian- speaking Val di Non, which largely belongs to the Trentino . The small village center is in the south of the municipality at an altitude of 1150 m . To the north of it, Laurein advances with a narrow strip of territory towards Hofmahdjoch , which provides a 1781 m high transition into Ultental . On the west side of it, the municipal area of the Kleinen ( 2311 m ) and Grosse Kornigl ( 2418 m ) reaches the summit points of the Ilmenkamm of the Ortler Alps .

history

Laurein is mentioned for the first time in 1233 as " terra Lauregni ", while at the same time there is talk of Laurein's own loan right (" consuetudo locationum mansorum ") as a reference to the settlement of the area that took place in the 13th century and probably originated from Ulten . Linguistically, the name is traced back to Rhaetian Lawara with the suffix -onia , which means something like "stony terrain". On the other hand, an alleged first mention of the Laureinerberg in an edict of the Ostrogoth king Theodoric the Great from 505 is considered a modern forgery in the scholarly interest .

Laurein belonged to the County of Tyrol and thus to Austria-Hungary until the end of the First World War . With the Treaty of Saint-Germain in 1920, the village came to Italy together with most of Tyrol south of the main Alpine ridge . When the two provinces of Bolzano and Trento emerged in these formerly Austrian areas in 1927, Laurein, like the other municipalities of Deutschnonsberg, was added to the predominantly Italian-speaking province of Trento. It was not until 1948 that Laurein was incorporated into the province of Bozen or South Tyrol.

Until 1998, when a tunnel under the Hofmahdjoch in the Val d'Ultimo was opened, and Laurein Proveis from the rest of South Tyrol were off the road just about Trentino accessible territory.
