Attraction introduction

The Tiroler Volkskunstmuseum (Tyrolean Folk Art Museum), built between 1553 and 1563, was originally a monastery, converted into a school in 1785, and became a state museum after 1829. The main building features Renaissance architecture, with the arcade courtyard being a typical example. As one of the most beautiful museums in Europe, it displays treasures rich in Alpine ethnic culture: living rooms, traditional costumes, masks, and nativity scenes. Numerous exhibits showcase the diverse folk culture of Tyrol.
