The League Party (colloquially referred to as the League) is a political party in the National Council and the senate of Tirol. It is one of the two major contemporary political parties in Tirol along with the Labour Party. Though it has varied greatly in ideology over its century and a half long history, it is contemporaneously conservative, with a substantial minority of monarchists.
Established in 1853, the League Party is by far the oldest existing political party represented in the National Council, though it is disputed as to whether it was the first political party in the history of Tirol.
