Alpineum Hinterstoder

The Alpineum, as a modern, award-winning exhibition house, is worth a visit at any time of the year. Here, you will receive background information about the history of the Stodertal valley, the life-threatening work of the lumberjacks, the mountaineering development history of the Totes Gebirge, and the evolution of skiing from its beginnings to the World Cup.

The modern museum building – constructed in 1998 – already suggests from the outside that visitors will not encounter a dusty "local museum," but rather historical and current videos and acoustic effects. Establishing connections from the past to the present is the core concept of the Alpineum with its extremely extensive collection of historical and contemporary exhibits. In an entertaining manner, the past is brought to life through engaging text and image design, creating a memorable experience for visitors. Be prepared to be surprised.

By the way, the Alpineum was awarded one of the best exhibition houses in Europe at the "Museum of the Year Award 2000." In addition to the permanent exhibition, the Alpineum continually surprises with successful special exhibitions on a variety of themes.

ALPINE MOMENTS
In the footsteps of E.T. Compton

Photography and Painting by Michael Zacek

Michael Zacek captures the archaic impact of nature moodily and with technical sophistication. He personally visits all the motifs displayed and initially captures the mountain world with his camera. Through intensive reworking with strong texture and color application, three-dimensionality is regained. The resulting spatial "real view" gives his works a deep and lively quality. On the occasion of the 175th birthday of E.T. Compton, Michael Zacek follows the traces and motifs of the alpine painter.
