Innsbruck is a city in western Austria (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Austria), and the capital of the federal state of Tyrol (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tyrol_%28state%29). It is located in the Inn (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inn_River) valley at the junction with the Wipptal (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wipptal) (Sill River (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sill_River)) which provides access to the Brennerpass (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brennerpass), just about 30 km south of Innsbruck. Located in the broad valley between tall mountains (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mountain), the Nordkette (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Nordkette&action=edit) (Hafelekar (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hafelekar&action=edit), 2334m) in the north, Patscherkofel (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patscherkofel) (2246m) and Serles (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serles) (2718m) in the south, it is an internationally renowned winter sports (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winter_sports) centre.
The first documented mention of Innsbruck dates back to 1187 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1187) ("Insprucke"). It served as an important crossing point over the river Inn. The city's seal and coat of arms show a bird's-eye view of the Inn bridge, a design used since 1267 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1267). The route over the Brenner Pass (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brenner_Pass) was then a major transport and communications link between the north and the south, and the easiest route across the Alps (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alps). The revenues generated by serving as a transit station caused the city to flourish.
A large and famous district in Innsbruck - 'Wilten' - got its name from an old Roman settlement 'Veldidena'.
Innsbruck became the capital of all Tirol in 1429 and later in 15th century (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/15th_century) the city became a centre of European politics and culture as emperor Maximilian I (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximilian_I%2C_Holy_Roman_Emperor) moved the imperial court to Innsbruck in the 1490s (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1490s).
During the Napoleonic wars (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Napoleonic_wars) Tyrol was ceded to Bavaria (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bavaria), ally of France. Andreas Hofer (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andreas_Hofer) led a Tyrolean peasant army in the victory on the Berg Isel (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Battles_of_Bergisel&action=edit) against combined Bavarian and French forces, proceeded to make Innsbruck the centre of his administration. The combined army later overran the Tyrolean militia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Militia) army and Innsbruck was until 1814 part of Bavaria. After the Vienna Congress (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vienna_Congress) Austrian rule returned. The Tyrolean hero Andreas Hofer was executed in Mantua and his remains were returned to Innsbruck in 1823 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1823) and interred in the Franciscan church.
In 1938 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1938) Austria was annexed (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anschluss) by Hitler's Germany (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nazi_Germany). From 1943 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1943) until April,1945 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1945), Innsbruck experienced 21 bomb attacks (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_bombing) and suffered heavy damage.
