Villa Grohmann

Turn-of-the-century villa belonging to a sculpture painter and gilder

The turn-of-the-century villa named after Paul Grohmann, the first to climb the Langkofel mountain, was built in 1906 by Konrad Pitscheider de Menza, a sculpture painter and gilder from St. Ulrich, on a plot of land belonging to Pitla Sotria farm. Pitscheider set up one of the most important workshops for the painting of sacred statues and other church decorations at the start of the 20th century on the ground floor. The construction is in its original state and is inhabited.
