Geography

Innichen borders the municipalities of Toblach, Innervillgraten (Austria), Sexten, and Sillian (Austria).

History

Innichen Abbey

Innichen is home to the Innichen Abbey, founded in the late 8th century (769) by duke Tassilo III of Bavaria, belonging to the Prince-Bishopric of Freising.[4] The abbey itself was disestablished in 1785, while the surrounding estates were acquired by the County of Tyrol after the Mediatisation of 1803 (Reichsdeputationshauptschluss). According to the terms of the Treaty of Saint-Germain, Innichen became part of the Kingdom of Italy in 1919. Innichen is still the site of a Franciscan monastery founded in 1691.

Coat-of-arms

The emblem shows an argent tower with the Ghibelline merlon on two levels, with the portal and the portcullis; above the door a coat of arms showing the head of a Moor, crowned with an or diadem on azure. The tower has settled on vert countryside and gules. This kind of representation points out that the site was once under the rule of the Bishops of Freising owners of a large area in the region from 769 to 1803. The coat of arms was granted by King Albert I of Germany in 1303.[5]


Linguistic distribution

According to the 2011 census, 85.06% of the population spoke German, 14.64% Italian and 0.30% Ladin as their first language.[6]
