Abstract
It is tried to reconstruct the puzzle of pre-Mesozoic basement areas i n the Alps and to present the geological history from Proterozoic to P ermian times, including the Proterozoic to Early Palaeozoic rifting hi story by the stepwise crustal shortening and the final collision durin g the Late Variscan.
