Shopping in Innsbruck

What to Buy

  • Tyrolean handicrafts: Hand-carved wooden figures, pewterware, and painted trays — best sourced at Tiroler Heimatwerk on Meraner Strasse.
  • Traditional clothing (Tracht): Dirndl dresses and Lederhosen at Giesswein or established Trachten outfitters in the Altstadt.
  • Swarovski crystals: The Swarovski flagship store on Maria Theresien Strasse is the most convenient, though the Crystal Worlds in Wattens offers the full range.
  • Tyrolean schnapps & spirits: Obstler, Enzian, and Williams pear brandy — widely available at delicatessens and the Markthalle.
  • Local cheeses & cured meats: Tyrolean Graukäse (grey cheese), Speck ham, and mountain honey at the weekly farmers' market.

Shopping Areas

  • Maria Theresien Strasse: International chains and Austrian fashion brands in the city's main shopping boulevard.
  • Altstadt (Herzog-Friedrich-Strasse): Boutiques, jewellery, souvenirs, and galleries under the historic Gothic arcades.
  • Markthalle (indoor market, Herzog-Siegmund-Ufer): Fresh produce, artisan cheeses, flowers, and delicatessen items — open weekdays and Saturday mornings.
  • DEZ Shopping Centre: Large mall in the eastern suburbs for everyday items, electronics, and major brands.

Market Days

The weekly Bauernmarkt (farmers' market) runs every Saturday morning on Marktplatz — the best source of regional specialities and local producers.
