Museums and Exhibitions

Discover South Tyrol’s diverse heritage: from Oetzi to typewriters - a museum for every interest

Minerals and artworks, Oetzi the Iceman and the cave bear "Ursus ladinicus", speck and Haflinger horses, nativity scenes and typewriters - South Tyrol's museum landscape offers a surprising variety of themes. The region boasts over 150 museums, collections and exhibitions, including world-renowned institutions like the South Tyrol Museum of Archaeology.

The venues housing these exhibits and displays are equally creative: planetariums and bunkers, residential homes and Baroque castles, mountain peaks and cellars, chapels and parish houses.
