Castelrotto is one of the most picturesque towns in South Tyrol. As of 2017, this beautiful town was included in the list of "The Most Beautiful Villages in Italy" thanks to its historical and artistic value. Its curious name comes from Castellum Ruptum (ruined castle), with a clear reference to the ruined fortress whose remains you can admire by going to the Kofel Hill, easily reached starting from the center of the village; it is a scenic spot not to be missed.
Castelrotto is located within the Schlern Nature Park, at the foot of theAlpe di Siusi, and if you are thinking about your next spring or summer vacation, then you should seriously consider a stay at this delightful garni in Castelrotto, the Martina Breakfast Lodge, a three-star accommodation facility that will provide you with many amenities including a rich breakfast buffet, indoor pool, sauna, rooftop terrace, a children's play area, private parking, free wi-fi, electric car charging stations (extra charge), etc.

The historical center of Castelrotto is a real gem and its heart is the Krausplatz, Kraus Square. Visiting this charming village means taking a trip back in time: you will admire the old painted houses, the beautiful decorations adorning the inns and the signs made of wrought iron. You will certainly notice the Church of Saints Peter and Paul, which some define as Cathedral of the Dolomites.

One of these, which will take place from May 24-26, 2024, is the Oswald von Wolkenstein Ride which consists of a challenge between jockeys from four teams who will have to compete for victory by passing several tests; the last race is held near Presule Castle, a hamlet of Fiè allo Sciliar.
Every Thursday then, starting June 10, the weekly traders' market will be held in the village; on Fridays the farmers' market will be held.
A must-see event for those staying in these parts in June is theOpen Air of the celebrated Kastelruther Spatzen, folk group that have their roots in Castelrotto.
