Chronicles of Bolzano
Bolzano, the capital of South Tyrol, was founded by the Romans in 15 BC as the Roman city of Iulium Carnicum. The city's strategic location at the foot of the Dolomites made it a key hub for trade and commerce in the Middle Ages. In the 12th century, Bolzano became a major centre of the Holy Roman Empire, earning it the nickname 'the gateway to the Dolomites'. Today, Bolzano is a vibrant city with a unique blend of Italian and German cultures, reflected in its architecture, cuisine, and festivals.
