“Pustrissa”
Pustrissa is the first name given to the Puster Valley. The name is of Celtic origin and goes back to the name Bustrus, possibly a Celtic chieftain. Before the Romans took over the land, the valley was inhabited by Celts (Saevaten tribe) and a smaller number of Raetians. The Puster Valley belonged to the Celtic kingdom of Noricum and the valley may have been sparsely populated. Between Olang and Rasen there was a settlement near the Windschnur burial ground and near today’s St. Lorenzen there was the Celtic Oppidum Sebatum.
Pustrissa stands for tradition, nature and the origin of our homeland, the Puster Valley, which is also called the green valley.
