Review & Frequenly Asked Questions:

The Hofkirche is a Gothic church in Innsbruck that was constructed in the mid-1500s. The church was constructed by the Emperor Ferdinand I as a memorial to his grandfather, Emperor Maxmillian I. Maximillian’s marble cenotaph stands in the middle of the nave, but does not contain the body of the revered emperor. The tomb has a series of stone reliefs depicting the emperor’s life and several interesting statues depicting family members, ancestors, and horses of the emperor surrounding the tomb. The church also contains the sarcophagus of Philippine Welser, Andreas Hofer’s funerary monument, and an organ that is nearly 500 years old.
