Museum of minerals
Treasures of the Alps
Our unique museum, which is said to be one of the most prominent in the Eastern Alps, is the result of a long-lasting passion in our family for searching and collecting minerals. On a 300-square-meter exhibition space you can marvel at over 1.000 mineral exhibits from the local Zillertaler Alps and the Hohe Tauern region which were formed approx. 30 million years ago in the depths of our Earth.
