It should be noted that (as the name suggests) Runkelstein is in a German speaking region. Sudtirol makes part of Italy since World War I.

Hi Marco, I agree. When we say Germany in relation to the VMs we have to keep in mind that in 15th century the map was different. The VMs may come from a place that is today Italy, Switzerland, Austria or even France (Burgundy for example ended up with the Habsburgs through the marriage of Mary of Burgundy and Maximilian I)
