Messner Mountain Museum

Located in Juval Castle in the Vinschgau and dedicated to the myth of the mountain, the Messner Mountain Museum is a very special experience.
It houses several art collections, including a Tibetica collection, a gallery of paintings of the world’s holy mountains, a collection of masks from five continents, a unique Gesar of Ling exhibition, a Tantra Room and the Expedition Cellar. All of these are souvenirs of the innumerable expeditions undertaken by Reinhold Messner around the world, where he passes on his heritage, knowledge and experience to visitors.

There is also a small mountain zoo, home-grown produce at the Schlosswirt tavern, excellent wines in Unterortl and a farmhouse shop.
