Attraction Hasegg Castle & Museum Münze Hall

Hasegg Castle, with its Mint Tower, is the landmark of the medieval town of Hall. Built to protect the town and the salt works, it was expanded into a stately castle under Duke Siegmund and Emperor Maximilian I. The castle experienced its greatest boom in 1567 when Archduke Ferdinand II had the mint relocated to the castle.

Description

Trace back to a past where wealth meant hard cash and money had a magical shine, currency was as hard as the material from which it was minted, and coin forgers faced a terrible fate.

Visitors of all ages can embark on a quest into the exciting past of Hasegg Castle and the history of coinage with the help of a modern audio guide or their own smartphone via the audio guide system and their own headphones. The coin tower entices with the largest silver dollar in the world, city archaeology, the falconry area, and a magnificent view of the medieval town of Hall and the mighty Karwendel mountains. As a grand finale, you can mint your own coin in the form of a Guldiner.
