The Golden Roof (Goldenes Dachl) is a landmark bay window in the Old Town of Innsbruck, Austria, considered the city's most famous symbol. Completed in 1500, its roof was decorated with 2,657 fire-gilded copper tiles for Emperor Maximilian I to mark his wedding to Bianca Maria Sforza. From its balcony, the Emperor and his wife watched festivals, tournaments, and other events in the square below.
