St. Magdalena in South Tyrol is named after the famous church and offers one of the most spectacular and well-known views of the majestic Dolomites. The rugged and steeply descending mountains create a striking contrast to the lush green of the meadows and forests and the gently rolling hills surrounding St. Magdalena. The late Gothic church that gave the village its name was built in the late 15th century and serves as the focal point of the bustling life on the alpine pastures.
