The narrow Reschen provincial highway runs three kilometres north of Nauders through a narrow valley. The fortress Nauders lies sheltered in the cliff of the mountains. Together with fortress Franzensfeste it was built in the 19th century to stop possible enemies from marching through the Tyrol. Even though it is a relatively new fortress it is the only one in Austria dating back to this time, which is still conserved. Completely in good order the fortress is a museum today.
