Chroniken Tirols: Die Bajuwaren – Wie Tirol deutsch wurde

Welcome to a new episode of the Chronicles of Tyrol. Long before counts ruled Tyrol. Long before castles crowned the mountaintops. Long before Meinhard II united the land. Tyrol was part of a different world. After the collapse of the Western Roman Empire, a power vacuum emerged in the Alps. It was during this period of upheaval that the migrations and settlements of the Bavarians occurred, whose language, culture, and way of life would profoundly shape the history of Tyrol. In this episode, we accompany the Bavarians on their journey across the Alpine passes. We explore their origins, their possible connection to the Celtic Boii, their encounters with the Raetians, Norici, and Romanized Alpine inhabitants, as well as the gradual process of the Germanization of Tyrol. At the same time, we delve into the religious world of the Early Middle Ages – a time between ancient mountain sanctuaries, Wodan, Donar, and the progressive Christianization under the Agilolfings.
