The year was 1950, when the small village of Graun was flooded following the creation of a large dam<\/strong> which unified three lakes. Since then, the bell tower<\/strong> appears\u00a0from the water, making Lake Reschen<\/strong>\u00a0unique and magical.<\/p>\n

We are in the beautiful Val<\/strong> Venosta<\/strong>, a place characterized by historical testimonies and natural\u00a0trails, by\u00a0castles and mountain biking trails. Here, in front of Vallelunga’s mountains, at 1,500m above sea level, there is the Lake Reschen, the largest in South<\/strong> Tyrol<\/strong>, which still tells us its sad\u00a0history.<\/p>\n

The history of the Lake Reschen<\/h2>\n

Once\u00a0the lakes were three: beside Lake\u00a0Reschen there were the Curon and San Valentino alla Muta. In 1950 they were joined by a dam, that\u00a0sadly submerged Graun village, its houses and its lands. Residents had to be evacuated and of the village only the great church tower dating from the fourteenth century remained. It seems to come out of nowhere, and it makes the Lake Reschen\u00a0a truly charming and fabulous<\/strong> place<\/strong>, a symbol<\/strong> of the whole valley. In winter, when the lake freezes, the bell tower\u00a0can be reached by\u00a0foot.<\/p>\n

Legend has it that, in the cold winter nights, you can still hear the bells ringing.<\/p>\n
