Museum Gherdëina

Deep insights into the thousand-year history of Gröden

The 'Cësa di Ladins' building was constructed in 1954 by the cultural association 'Union di Ladins de Gherdëina'. It is the first cultural centre in the Dolomite-Ladin valleys. The museum has been here since 1960 and was extended twice (1970, 1985). On the basis of a recent international architecture competition, the building is going to be refurbished with the support of Gröden valley local councils, the Autonomous province of Bolzano-South Tyrol and the Autonomous region of Trentino-Südtirol, and partially replaced by a new museum building.
