Garnet-bearing metapelites in the Helvetic and Austroalpine pre-Mesozoic polymetamorphic basement are characterised by pressure-temperature path segments reconstructed by microstructurally controlled geothermobarometry, and the Th-U-Pb monazite age distribution pattern revealed by the electron probe microanalyser (EPMA). In the Helvetic Aiguilles Rouges Massif and the Austroalpine Oetztal-Stubai basement to the NW an Ordovician-to-Silurian high temperature event preceded a pressure-dominated Carboniferous metamorphism. In the Austroalpine basement units to the south of the Tauern Window, the maximal pressures of the Carboniferous amphibolite-facies metamorphism range from 12 to 6 kbar. The decompressional P-T path segments signal a transition to low pressure conditions. A subsequent high pressure overprint is restricted to the Prijakt Subgroup unit in the Schobergruppe and documented by Cretaceous monazite crystallisation at 88 ± 6 Ma. In the Austroalpine Saualpe basement to the SE, a distinct early Permian metamorphism which started at low pressures of ~4 kbar/500 °C and reached maximal 6 kbar/600–650 °C predated the intrusion of Permian pegmatites. Permian monazite crystallised in line with the intrusion of pegmatites. Corona microstructures around the Permian monazites indicate retrogression previous to a Cretaceous high pressure metamorphism. That way, pressure-temperature-time paths resolve the spatial and temporal evolution in the polymetamorphic Alpine basement prior to the Tertiary collision.
