Image gallery: Bolzano Civic Gallery
The probably most famous gallery of South Tyrol is located directly at the Dominican Square in the old town of Bolzano and is housed in a former Dominican Monastery. It is run by the Office of Historical-Artistic and Museum Services. Valuable works by Michael Pacher from the 15th century, such as a wooden statue and an altar wing, as well as the Carolingian choir screen from the St. Benedict Church in Malles in the Val Venosta from the 9th century can be seen on the two floors.
Changing special exhibitions - photo and art exhibitions - complete the offer. Every year, about nine of them are organised, with titles such as "Journey Without Borders", "Making visible: A dialogue between art and church" or "Goodbye Glaciers", among others.
And how to reach the Bolzano Civic Gallery (Stadtgalerie Bozen)? It is located at the Dominican Square, within easy walking distance and comfortably reachable by public transport: The bus stops in front of the entrance at the Piazza Domenicani. Also parking spaces are available nearby.
