Description

Innovation from yesterday in today!

In the area of the open-air museum, at the entrance to the Arntal in Innervillgraten, visitors experience a world full of fascinating stories and unforgettable experiences - tradition and craftsmanship come alive here in an impressive way.

It is a journey into the past, before electronic power reached the region and water was the only source of energy available.

An ensemble consisting of a mill, a Venetian sawmill, a wool carding machine, an alpine hut, and a farmstead showcases life in the Alps of bygone days with all its challenges, crafts, traditions, agricultural tools, wooden constructions, and the power of water.

The exhibits in the alpine hut and farmstead, including various agricultural items, help to highlight the connection between the past and the present.

Visitors can not only see the elements of water, wood, grain, and wool but also feel and experience how they were used in those times during regular demonstrations.

The open-air museum "ALPINE LIFE" Innervillgraten offers fascinating insights into the past - a unique experience!
