Sommario/riassunto

The studies available to date on St. Christoph am Arlberg are essentially a history of the brotherhood there, supplemented by a few essays on the history of transport. Now, based on extensive new source material, the history of the hospice and the chapel since 1386 is rolled out again and decisively corrected. The most important result is the proof that the Brotherhood of St. Christoph was pure fiction, an invention of business-minded alms collectors and hosts. Above all, however, the book is about those people who lived on and from the Arlberg or who crossed it. From the end of the 15th century until the time of Emperor Josef II, there was only a mule track across the Arlberg, and traffic was determined by Saumers from Vorarlberg and Switzerland who brought Schmalz to Innsbruck and Hall and



transported salt back from there. In addition, there are path makers, mountain guides, cattle and salt handlers, miners, guards, postmen, soldiers, pilgrims, travellers, merchants, beggars, traveling people, rabble and others. to speak. For them, the Arlberg was once, occasionally, frequently or always the station and centre of their lives and they had learned to adapt to the rough nature in the high mountains, with fog, storm, ice, snow, avalanches, mudslides, falling rocks, rock falls, floods, To live weather change.
