10 Specialty Museums in Austrian Alps That You Shouldn't Miss

December 23, 2021 Claudia Navarrete

The majestic Austrian Alps stretch across the country, an awe-striking area of Ice Age valleys, verdant heaths and alluvial cones within Europe's largest national park, 700-square-mile Hohe Tauern. Taking in the dramatic cities of Salzburg and Innsbruck and the beautiful province of Tirol, home to spectacular skiing and hiking, as well as Gross Glockner, Austria's highest peak, and some of the world's best winter and summer sports playgrounds, the Austrian Alps are an outdoor lover's paradise.

Museum der Voelker

Our society needs places that confront the way of life, diversity, ancient and present forms of coexistence of people from a variety of cultural backgrounds. This is not just about "amazement" but about making a connection with one's individual life and experience - and locating one's own views. The Museum der Völker is supposed to be a vibrant space addressing socially and culturally relevant topics.

Reviewed By teamfunannie - Concord, United States

We loved this. I had no idea this was at the top of the trail to the highline and this was my highlight. We had just gone to Neuschwanstein and boy I was not into that experience. THIS, though, WAS SO COOL> Very old ruins. And the stories about the stone worm and more. Just a cool place. Magical actually! I just felt like we don't have history likje this to touch in the US, except where some Native American stuff has been actually kept but mainly it is rebuilt examples, not the real thing. This was real and so cool. Beautiful. Long walk up kind of 20 minutes maybe? But steepish. It alone is free but you have to pay to park. And you have to pay for the highline.
