Schwaz is one of those towns which you see on a postcard, with verdant rolling hills, snow-capped mountains in the backdrop, and a beautiful, rustic town with a church or two towering the skyline. While the natural beauty is undisputed, Parish Church of the Assumption of Mary, Franciscan Monastery Schwaz with its Gothic paintings, the awe-inspiring Zeiss Planetarium and Schwaz silver mine are some of the best sights in town. The mine even has a small train route taking it deep into the mountains, adding another novelty experience.
