The village is prettily situ ated at the junction of 4 valleys. A carriage-road has been made hence into the Pinzgau at Mittersill (Rte, 230), by Kitzbühel and the Pass Thurn, About 2 m. 8. from this, in the valley of the Achen, on the

way to Kitzbühel, is the abandoned mine of Bohrerbühel, which, between the years 1540 and 1630, yielded almost incredible trea sures of silver and copper. It is re markable for having the deepest shaft of any mine in the world, except Monk- wearmonth —extending for 500 fathoms into the bowels of the mountain. From St. Johann to El man the road ascends considerably almost all the way, Elmau : being near the summit of the pass. From Elmau to Soli it alternately ascends and descends; from W orgl

Here is a tidy Inn. the Erzherzog Johann, and kept by the Fischmeister of the district, and a boat may be hired, with 2 men, to row to the other end, a distance of i between 4 and 5 m., for 1 ft.

It is connected with the Teplitzersee by a cutting, bearing date 1549, to float timber. The time occupied in visiting the Grundl Teplitz and Kammer lakes from the Krzherzog Johann, and re turning there, is about hrs., 1^ hr. of that time being occupied in walking between those lakes by an indifferent walker.

Family Hotel I The following notice of the Hotel Erzherzog Johann is taken from an article from the „Neue Freie Presse' of September 28th 1909 on the development of the buildings of Meran, „The secret of success of many hotel-managements lies in the friendly attention given to small details apart from the main business, and in the completion of details which give to travellers a feeling of comfort and real enjoyment. And therefore Elite travellers enjoy and appreciate these fashionable hotels

, which, in a modern dress, cultivate and preserve the spirit and charm of olden times. After enjoying a glorious past of more than a century the family hotel Erzherzog Johann still heads the list of first class hotels in Meran, and stands as a pioneer of progress and success. One can easily understand that this model management which has been in the hands of the same family since its foundation has always met with the greatest success. The experience of no less than four generations has contributed

greatly towards keeping the undertaking up to the highest point. The alterations and new buildings added during the last five years, and the modern improvements con tinually made, have helped in a most remarkable way, zherzog Johann as regards comfort and luxury, to make the hotel Erzherzog Johann one of the most fashionable first class hotels. In the Erzherzog Johann the type of a first class family hotel is developed and illustrated to the highest degree. Perhaps this fact explains the eminent

position of the hotel. The establishment is the favourite stopping-place of princely families, and members of the European aristocracy, and the cream of international society. The history of the hotel is inseparably connected with the local history of the health resort. It would be im possible to enumerate here the long list of illustrious visitors who have stayed in the hospitable halls of the Erzherzog Johann. Kaiser Franz Josef stayed here during his visit to Meran in the autumn of 1899, and on this

Das Familienhotel Erzherzog Johann Dem der baulichen Entwicklung Merans gewidmeten Artikel, welchen die „Neue Freie Presse' am 28. Sep tember 1909 brachte, seien nachfolgende, das „Hotel Erz herzog Johann' betreffende Ausführungen entnommen: „, .... Das Geheimnis des Erfolges von vielen Hotelbetrieben steckt in scheinbar Nebensächlichem, in der Komplizität von Details, die erst in ihrer Gesamtheit jenes köstliche Gefühl der Behaglichkeit wecken, welches das Reisen zum wirklichen Genüsse

gestaltet. Und darum liebt und schätzt gerade die Elite des Reisepublikums diese vornehmen Gaststätten, die auch im modernen Kleide den Geist und Zauber der alten Zeit pflegen und bewahren. Mit einer mehr als hundertjährigen ruhmvollen Vergangenheit steht das „Familienhotel Erzherzog Johann' nach wie vor an der Spitze der Meraner Hotel industrie, stets ein Pionier des Fortschrittes und Förderer kurörtlicher und beruflicher Interessen. Und sehr wohl kann man es verstehen, daß diesem Musterbetriebe

bleibt mit der Lokalgeschichte des Kurortes untrennbar ver bunden. Es würde zu weit führen, die schier unerschöpf liche Reihe der illustren Besucher aufzuzählen, die in den gastlichen Hallen des „Hotel Erzherzog Johann' geweilt haben. Lediglich die Tatsache sei registriert, daß auch unser Kaiser gelegentlich seines Aufenthaltes in Meran im Herbst 1899 das „Hotel Erzherzog Johann' mit Seinem Besuche ausgezeichnet und bei diesem Anlasse dem Vater des gegenwärtigen Besitzers besondere Beweise
