The community of Innsbruck is the provincial capital of Tyrol and as a town with its own statutes is also responsible for the administration of the district. The administrative area of the district Innsbruck-City stretches from behind the Nordkette mountains in the north and as far as the Patscherkofel in the south. Innsbruck is a major crossroad because it located where the Wipptal and Silltal valleys join the Inntal. Here the Brenner and the Inntal motorways intersect as do the railway lines, the airport is also of international importance. As the provincial capital Innsbruck has to take on important tasks for the province, among other things it is the seat of the provincial government, the provincial theatre and the court of jurisdiction, the ORF Austrian television studios, the provincial hospital and the universities. Innsbruck has also become famous for having hosting the Olympic Games, for which a number of facilities, for example, the combined bobsleigh and toboggan run in Igls, were built.
