22 TRAVEL MAGAZINE aut. architektur und tirol The fact that the Tirol has become a centre of modern architecture in recent years is largely due to the work of the „aut.architektur und tirol“ (formerly the “Architekturforum“) which has been organizing exhibitions, lectures, children‘s workshops and other such programmes since 1993. Since 2005 the aut has itself been housed in a building steeped in history – the Adambräu brewery in Innsbruck, built by Lois Welzenbacher in 1926/27. This has been sensitively adapted for its new use as an architectural and research centre by architects Rainer Köberl, Thomas Giner, Erich Wucherer and Andreas Pfeifer. In addition to the aut, it also houses the building archive of the University of Innsbruck. architec[tour] tirol In order to obtain a comprehensive survey of the Tirolean building landscape those interested are recommended to undertake one of the five so-called architec(tour)s that the aut has put together in cooperation with the Tirol Tourist Board, the Municipality of Innsbruck and Innsbruck Tourist Office. They can be accessed at www.aut.cc. Maps and basic information are also provided for the routes listed below, further links provide more in-depth information. “Not to Miss“ combines highlights in Innsbruck and in the surroundings. Lively building activities have given rise to new venues and urban centres, e.g. the BTV city forum by Heinz Tesar, the SOWI by Dieter Henke and Marta Schreieck or Zaha Hadid‘s Hungerburg cable railway. A further Innsbruck highlight will soon be added with David Chipperfield‘s Kaufhaus Tyrol.
