The tower in the lake THE SUNKEN TOWER IN LAKE RESCHENSEE, THE LANDMARK OF VINSCHGAU The landmark of the Vinschgau is both fairytale and fascinating: a sunken church tower rises lonely from the 6 km long, clear Reschensee, in front of the mountain scenery of the rustic Langtauferer Valley. But the story behind the famous postcard motif, the "tower in the lake", is far less idyllic: the Romanesque little church from the 14th century is a silent witness of an irresponsible lake damming shortly after the end of the Second World War. Since 1922 fascism has raged in Italy and thus also in South Tyrol. In 1939, the large "Montecatini" group submitted a project to dam Lake Reschen and Lake Graun by 22 metres. The population of Reschen and Graun was completely ignored. However, the outbreak of the Second World War delayed the construction project which had already begun. The inhabitants of the Upper Vinschgau believed that they would be rid of this spectre forever. But to the dismay of the inhabitants concerned, in 1947, only two years after the end of the war, Montecatini announced that work on the dam project would be resumed immediately. In the summer of 1950 the time had come. The locks were closed and the Reschensee dammed. 677 hectares of land were flooded, almost 150 families were deprived of their livelihood and half of them forced to emigrate. The compensation was very modest. The inhabitants of Graun were then placed in a makeshift barracks camp at the exit of the Langtaufer Valley, which had been set up in a hurry. Hundreds of families from Graun and Reschen lost their existence as a result of the fascist stagnation project. Today, the tower in the Reschensee is a listed building and is a landmark of the municipality of Graun and a magnet for the public. #reschenseekirche #reschensee #reschenpass #vinschgau #italien #italy #indianmotorcycle #indianmotorcycles #indianmotorcycleswitzerland #bmwmotorrad #bmwmotorradch #indianroadmaster #bmwr1200gs #r1200gs (hier: Reschensee / Lago di Resia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B3khInOpPDd/?igshid=bv6g1cqaetjx
