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

Junerëi

Junerëi (from juniperus = juniper) is a group of houses at Außerwinkel by Cudan stream. The farms have been occupied since the early 16th century. The one-storey house bearing the name Junerëi on its eastern façade is a baroque structure. The Trebinger family has been running a major workship for baroque figurines and frame cutting here since 1662. Junerëi continued to be a centre for sculpture and craftsmanship into the 20th century.

Ulëta

Ulëta, on the sunny side of the valley at 1560 metres above sea level, is one of the few hamlets in Gröden and consists of three twin farmhouses. The lowest dwelling has a central section from the 13th century, and the highest dwelling is probably the most recent building in the ensemble. The hamlet is a prime example of how Gröden farmhouses reflect their location, weather, climate and use of sunlight and communicate with their environment.
