North Tyrol, or North Tirol is the main part of the
Austrian state of
Tyrol, located in the western part of the country. The other part of the state is
East Tyrol, which also belongs to Austria, but does not share a border with North Tyrol. Besides those two regions, the historical region of
Tyrol for many centuries also included the areas today known as
Bolzano-Bozen and
Trento, which were annexed by
Italy after
World War I. By that, North Tyrol and East Tyrol were effectively cut of from each other.North Tyrol borders
Salzburg in the east, the
German state of
Bavaria in the north,
Vorarlberg in the west, the
Swiss canton of
Graubünden in the southwest and
Bolzano-Bozen in the south. Its capital is
Innsbruck.
