Magrè sulla Strada del Vino, vineyards in the Bassa Atesina

Margreid an der Weinstraße, as its German name says, is a wine village: the vineyards of the Bassa Atesina (Unterland) come right up to the houses, and the centre sits on the western edge of the Adige valley at the foot of rocky slopes. This is the southern part of South Tyrol, between Bolzano and Trento.

For anyone working in town, the train is a real advantage: Magrè-Cortaccia station, on the Brenner line, is down on the valley floor, and from there Bolzano and Trento can be reached without a car; for secondary schools and the hospital you still need to head to the larger towns. Houses in the old core often have cellars, vaults and thick walls, while newer buildings follow the building rules of the autonomous province.

The village is growing: 1,336 residents in 2023, up 4.3% on 2011 according to Istat, the national statistics office. The population is young, with an average age of 42.5 (43.4 in the province) and over-65s at 19.3%, and foreign residents make up 14.7%.

All 116 municipalities in South Tyrol are in seismic zone 4, the lowest, and in Magrè the expected ground acceleration is 0.056 g. In older houses, damp in the cellars, the state of the roofs and the heating and electrics matter more.

South Tyrol uses the tavolare land register, the Libro fondiario (Grundbuch), and the Revenue Agency (Agenzia delle Entrate) does not publish parcel maps here. The report says so and works on the other data for the address, including the official landslide and flood maps, which are useful between the foot of the slopes and the Adige valley floor.
