Austria
Kitzbühel is a medieval city in Tyrol, Austria, situated along the river Kitzbühler Ache, now best known as a ski resort. It is the administrative centre of the district (Bezirk) Kitzbühel. The legend says that the first Bavarian settlers saw the chamoises grazed with the kids (Kitzen) on a hill (Büchel). This place they named "Kitzbühel". The true part from this story is that the region has been really populated with Bavarians (presumably since the second half sixth century). The name, most likely, occurs from a nobleman by name (Chizzo), whose residence was in these parts. Thus, the name "Kitzbühel" can mean «the Hill of Kitzo». The central historical part of small town is surrounded by a fortification and includes the whole ensemble of architectural sights. The old city is surrounded with quite modern and brisk city quarters. Kitzbühel is one of the first mounting skiing resorts. In 1928 the first lifts here have been built. The resort has got wide popularity thanks to competitions of a World Cup regularly spent here.
