The wood carver Christina Rifesser was running a workshop in the old farmhouse Domur back in 1888. When Matthias Comploy inherited the farmhouse in Tieja from his mother in 1903, he turned it into a turn-of-the-century style villa and set up a private teaching workshop for sculpting and altar-building carpentry. As of 1910, the teacher Albino Pitscheider and his family lived here and Comploy had to auction the workshop after the First World War.

Johann Baptist Moroder, son of Josef Moroder Lusenberg and himself one of the most important Gröden sculptors around 1900, built Villa Venezia in 1903/04 based on his own designs for a residence in neo-Renaissance style with a balustrade featuring marble wooden columns. A sculptor's studio and domed skylight were included. The mills from Planaces farm, the forge with furnace and a sawmill used to be in front of the newly built house.

Villa Argentina is reminiscent of a 23-metre high, 10-metre wide high altar built for a church in Cordoba (Argentina) between 1918 and 1920. In charge of construction of the altar - the largest ever built in Gröden - was Josef Stuflesser (Bera Pepi de Petlin), who took over the ecclesiastical art academy in J.B. Purgerstraße after the First World War. Stuflesser bought this house with the proceeds of the Cordoba work and moved his office and residence here.
