The Raiffeisenkasse Kastelruth – St. Ulrich was founded in 1890 as a savings and loan association on the initiative of the dean Anton Egger and the notary Michael Santifaller. Matthäus Crepaz composed the concert march RAIKASTU for the 130th anniversary of the bank. An artificial name made up of the initial letters RAI for Raiffeisenkasse, KA for Kastelruth (Castelrotto) and STU for St. Ulrich (Ortisei).

Connected to tradition and at the same time open to the future, just like the bank, is how this wonderful march presents itself.
