From the Venedigermandln, sunken treasures, giants, and dwarfs - the great book of the legend treasure of Tyrol, for reading aloud, reading again, and passing on! Legends are treasures. They reach us from ancient times and will not go out of fashion tomorrow. Legends have a long memory and touch upon the mysteries behind things. They recount mythical occurrences long before history, speak of the actions of magical beings and archaic powers in places we think we know. Children, in particular, experience their homeland anew in the fantastic world of legends. Whether it’s the old Perchtl, the giant Haymon, Frau Hitt, Venedigermandln, or the Saligen Fräuleins - Tyrol has a rich treasure of legends: each region, each valley, almost every place tells its very own story within it. The successful children's book author Brigitte Weninger has reinterpreted this ancient treasure.
