Overview
SILLPARK is a shopping centre in the Dreiheiligen district of Innsbruck, Tyrol, Austria, and is described as the largest inner-city retail centre in the city. It opened in 1990 on the site of the former Rhomberg textile factory, planned by ATP architekten ingenieure, and was at the time the largest building project in Innsbruck. The centre takes its name from its surroundings: it borders a park and lies on the Sill river, which supplies it with electricity through an in-house hydroelectric power plant generating over 4 million kWh per year for self-consumption and feed-in to the public grid. The centre was substantially expanded in 2007 and today houses more than 60 shops and food-service outlets. Its anchor tenants include Peek & Cloppenburg, Primark, ONLY, Interspar and McDonald's, alongside restaurants such as McDonald's with McCafé, Café Cappuccino, Hörtnagl and Wang Fu – Asian Food. With more than 700 employees, SILLPARK is one of the largest workplaces in the region. It is operated and developed by SES Spar European Shopping Centers GmbH. SILLPARK positions itself as a family-friendly, centrally located shopping destination a few steps from Innsbruck's Old Town. It offers 29,500 m² of retail space, 730 underground parking spaces on three levels, over 400 bicycle parking spaces including an e-bike charging station, and direct public transport connections: IVB bus lines C, F and J and tram lines 1, 2, 3 and 5 stop in front of the building, and Innsbruck Hauptbahnhof is a few minutes' walk away. The centre runs a visitor service on the first floor, a private company kindergarten and crèche for employees' children, parent-child advice, a Kasperl theatre, free nappies and wet wipes, buggy and wheelchair loans, lockers, a defibrillator, nursing and changing rooms, and SILLPARK Zehner gift vouchers. SILLPARK is also used as a venue for events throughout the year, including children's events, school events and fashion shows. It has received awards including Tirolissimo in 2007 and 2012 and the ICSC Solal Marketing Award in 2010. The centre has been continuously modernised: a general renovation took place in 2014/15 while trading continued, the underground car park was modernised in 2019/20, and a further conversion and expansion programme, referred to on its website as SILLPARK 3.0, began in April 2025 and is ongoing.
History
SILLPARK was planned by ATP architekten ingenieure on the site of the former Rhomberg textile factory and opened in 1990. At that time it was the largest building project in the city of Innsbruck. It is located near Innsbruck Hauptbahnhof. Its name derives from its surroundings: the centre borders a park and lies on the Sill river, which supplies it with electricity through an in-house power plant. This environmentally friendly form of energy generation produces over 4 million kWh per year for self-consumption and feed-in to the public grid. In 2007 the SILLPARK was significantly enlarged by an extension building. With more than 60 shops and over 700 employees, it is one of the largest workplaces in the region. In 2012 the first Primark store in Austria opened in SILLPARK Innsbruck. In 2014/15 the shopping centre was fully renovated while trading continued. In 2019/20 the underground car park was modernised; according to the centre's website, the car park was completely renewed between 2018 and 2020 during ongoing operations and since completion ranks among the most modern parking garages in the country. In April 2025 a further conversion and expansion began, again during ongoing operations, presented on the website as SILLPARK 3.0, promising a new shopping experience with more room for comfort, encounters, light and lifestyle. Throughout the year, regular events take place in the centre in the areas of children's events, school events and fashion shows. The centre has received awards including Tirolissimo in 2007 and 2012 and the ICSC Solal Marketing Award in 2010. It is operated and developed by SES Spar European Shopping Centers GmbH.
