Culture and sights

Celtic fortifications on the Buchberg

From 1981 onwards, on the Inselberg Buchberg near Wiesing, north of the Inn, an area exposed by the construction of a quarry was examined. The area has been destroyed by the expansion of the quarry since 1984.

On the top of the hill at the western end, two wall squares were excavated. The finds showed a settlement from the 2nd century BC. The ceramics point to the late Hallstatt to early La Tène period. The massive palisade , which was erected on a limestone plinth and apparently burned in a warlike incident, enclosed a 25 × 25 m square. Due to the position of the pillars, the facility was not roofed; there was an access on the east side. This is also where most of the artifacts, mainly pottery shards, have been found. An interpretation as a cult area is questionable, rather a fortification is assumed. The lack of places for burnt victims, the small number of pottery finds, but above all 13 arrowheads and one lance tip on the east wall reinforce this assumption. After the masonry had apparently been destroyed by enemy conquest, a limestone wall was erected in front of the east wall with a system of three trenches in front of it. Another protective wall in front of it confirms its function as a weir system.

First mention

Wiesing is first mentioned in a document in the years 930/31 as "Vuisinga" on the occasion of a transfer of ownership to the Archbishopric of Salzburg , when a certain Himiltrud handed over her property there as well as other goods in Bozen , Mils , Vomp and Schwaz to Archbishop Odalbert .

Economy and Infrastructure

In terms of transport, Wiesing benefits from its location with several small and medium-sized businesses, and there are also many commuters.

From the A 12 Inntal motorway , the B 169 lead to the Zillertal and the B 181 to the Achensee . The Kanzelkehre on Achenseestraße offers a view of the Inn Valley and the entrance to the Zillertal. There is a connection to the S-Bahn via the Westbahn with the Münster-Wiesing stop .
