Telfs is a huge market town in the district of Innsbruck-Land and is located 27 km west of Innsbruck. It is the 3rd large location of Tyrol and received its status in 1908. Telfs possesses an own district court. In the last years Telfs has frequently been increasing in the number of inhabitants but efforts of leveling up to a city have been without success until now.
