Sacred places

The geographical location of the Brixen cathedral district has probably had geomantic significance since ancient times. It is likely to have been a place of power venerated in pre-Christian times, where sacred buildings were erected in the first post-Christian millennium. Centuries of Christian practice gave the architecturally wonderful buildings an additional powerful aura. The theme of the events in the cloister, the Church of Our Lady, St. John's Chapel and the cathedral is to draw attention to these original sources of strength and “holy places” in the Brixen cathedral district.
