Volders is a municipality in the district of Innsbruck-Land in the Austrian state of Tyrol located 12 km east of Innsbruck on the southern side of the Inn River.

Geography[edit]

Sights are Schloss Friedberg and Schloss Aschach and the church of Saint Charles Borromeo,^[3] attached to a Servite convent.^[4]

Next to the church at the entrance of the village lies the Volderer See,^[5] a small lake which has shrunk significantly and now resembles a pond.^[6] It has no natural inflow or outflow, and receives water primarily from rain, and also the groundwater of the Inn River. The water quality is moderate, varying between grades B and C, and is often plagued by algae.^[6] There is a local legend that a giant blocked the inflow to the lake with a large boulder, causing it to shrink.^[6][7]
