Haus Scurcià

Sculptors and disco music

Scurcià is considered one of the largest medieval farm sites in St. Ulrich, having been divided up and given rise to a number of different farmhouses. A workshop was set up in Haus Scurcià which produced a lot of well-known 19th-century sculptors. The altar builder, Leopold Moroder, extended the house in 1900 into a café and funded the already-existing 'Kastanienallee'. The house today is a new construction from 1981 by Giorgio Moroder, the disco music pioneer and Oscar prizewinner.
