Shooting locations & film locations. In the Hall-Wattens region
Before the first clapperboard drops and the actors strike a pose, many decisions have to be made. First and foremost - the choice of location. And this choice always falls on the Hall-Wattens region in Tyrol. The region offers interesting backdrops for films of all kinds.
As early as 1929, in the first Andreas Hofer film, freedom fighters from Tyrol fought against the occupying French forces in the salt works town. One of the locations in the black-and-white epic was a wooden bridge over the Inn, from which a daring extra threw himself into the Inn for the reward of a sausage roll. The views of the town have of course changed since then - what has remained is the medieval town center with its narrow cobbled streets and two to three-storey houses, which have been expertly restored to their original state over the past three decades in collaboration with the heritage office. This means that entire streets can be transformed back into a medieval setting with little effort.
A major advantage of the town of Hall in Tirol in the heart of the Alps is its four distinct seasons. With the incomparable nature of Tyrol's mountain landscapes and its original villages around the district capital of Hall, the region also offers a wealth of breathtaking filming locations away from the urban backdrop.
In addition to extremely good transport connections via highway, train and airport (Munich, Innsbruck, Bolzano, Zurich), the region offers a high standard of infrastructure as well as high-quality gastronomy and accommodation for crew members.
