About This Book

A curated collection of Tyrolean folktales and popular myths gathered from different valleys and districts of Tirol, presenting supernatural beings — including the Norgs, mountain hunters, water-maidens, and mining sprites — and their varied interactions with villagers. Tales alternate between beneficence and mischief, offering origin myths, moral exempla, and fantastical adventures that explain natural phenomena, local customs, and the sacred quality of hearth and landscape. Arranged by regional groupings, the pieces reflect distinct local beliefs, seasonal labours, and the interplay of faith and folklore.
