Ort der Stille

Bschlabs went silent. In a height of 1314 meters in Tyrol's Lechtal, is one of the Austrian regions most affected by emigration. In 2021, Bschlabs has 62 residents.

Inspired by the "Place of Silence" situated on the hiking route, starting in Bschlabs, we visited places associated with silence in order to record the soundscapes that nevertheless prevail there, the small as well as the big sounds: the local church, a shelter hut on the mountain Brandkopf, the Bschlabertal valley at night, our bedroom at the Haus Panorama and of course the „Place of Silence“.
