The Golden Roof was built around 1500 for Emperor Maximilian I, who watched festivals in the square from its balcony. Its roof is covered with 2,657 fire-gilded copper tiles.
Around it, Innsbruck's old town has colourful Gothic houses with arcades, and the Nordkette mountains rise directly behind the rooftops.
