History

The first settlement developed around the ferruginous healing spring Rothenbrunn, which was used by Innsbruck nobles and citizens since the Middle Ages. The place name is first mentioned in a document dated 1271 as Selrain. The origin of the name is disputed. It may be based on the ancient field name *selia ('Sennhütte'). In any case, the name is pre-Roman. [3]
