Haus Rusina
Souvenirs for tourists and radio station for locals
Haus Rusina is named after Rusina Vinatzer, who had it built in 1887 and set up her shop on the ground floor, where she sold carved wooden souvenirs for the emerging tourist trade. It still stands today. The Austrian photographer, Emil Terschak, had his first atelier in the house from 1894 to 1900, which, after his move to Cortina, was taken over by the photographer Dominik Holzknecht. From 1955 to 1961, 'Radio Ladin de Gherdëina' radio station broadcast from Haus Rusina.
