"Great is the power of memory that dwells in places." (from Cicero)

Trëbe

The small farmhouse with late-gothic plastering and red quoins goes back to the 14th/15th century. Brothers Christian, Bartolomäus, Dominik and Anton Trebinger are called after their birthplace, Trëbe. They made their name in the 17th century with works for churches in South Tyrol and as pioneers of training sculptors and altar building. There is still a sculpture workshop on the ground floor of Trëbe today.

Saint Christina's parish church

The church dedicated to St. Christina was first mentioned in 1342, and its foundation was in Freising. The fraternity altar from the early 18th century was created by the Vinazer brothers, and the baroque high altar is by the sculptor Trebinger. The current panel painting from 1848 originates from Johann Burgauner of Kastelruth, while the Last Supper relief on the northern choir wall (1855) is from the Gröden sculptor Peter Nocker.

Pescosta Vedla

The farmhouse on the border between St. Ulrich and St. Christina is divided in the direction of the roof ridge. The cellar has been there since the 15th/16th century, the farm since the 13th century. This is where the family of Christian Trebinger, the first baroque sculptor from Gröden, and, after 1651, Melchior Vinazer, who founded the Vinazer dynasty of sculptors and ran a prominent workshop for sacred art, lived. The house was renovated in 1992.
