Castle Tyrol - the South Tyrolean Museum of History

The museum was opened in 2003 in the ancestral castle of the Counts of Tyrol. An interactive tour through the castle complex, with its centuries-long history, illustrates the important themes of the region's past, its art and social history and everyday life during the Middle Ages. In the keep visitors are given a detailed account of salient moments of the 20th century: Multimedia stations, audio and video guides and an extensive collection of contemporary documents describe the long road leading to South Tyrol's autonomy.
