About this audio guide
This guide to the Stiftskeller in Innsbruck follows the walls beneath today's beer hall back through five centuries, from a fortified armoury on the edge of the old Hofburg to the grieving rebuild empress Maria Theresa ordered here in seventeen sixty five. It traces how those same foundation walls survived on as convent stables, and who finally noticed what the ground floor vaults were really built for. Listen for the low stone arches still overhead.
