Plandemureda was built in 1834 by Jan Matie Moroder da Scurcià, a trader of fashion accessories living in Ancona, as a summer house. Starting in 1869, his sons, Alois and Franz, exported wooden toys to the whole of Europe under the name of 'Gebrüder Moroder'. There was a small warehouse (today 'Pension Sole') next door where producers delivered their wares. St. Ulrich primary school now occupies the spot behind the building where the 1849-built stable used to stand.

The building was bought at auction and converted in 1830 by Josef Senoner da Costa, a Gröden businessman in Nuremberg. In 1899, Franz Moroder (de Lenèrt) purchased the house and transferred the headquarters of his 'Gebrüder Moroder' company there from Plandemureda. He also opened the first bureau de change in Gröden in Haus Costa. The hay barn next door belonging to the old farm site is still in its original state.

Originally a twin farmhouse, Haus Pigon was converted and given a new façade with red quoins and red window framing. Haus Pigon was the seat of one of the oldest export wood carving businesses in the valley, the Riffeser company (Pigon), set up by Vinzenz Riffeser. Its foundation year is not known, but it pre-dates the First World War. At the end of the 20th century, Pigon was mainly selling imported wood carving products, and in 2012 the company shut down.

The SEVI company run by Vinzenz Senoner was (together with ANRI of Anton Riffeser) one of the most important employers in Gröden, with 140 employees and 200 workers from home, and it was one of Europe's leading wood carving producers. Haus Vastlé was constructed in 1831 by Senoner's father, Josef Anton, who started exporting small wooden figurines and toys. After construction of factory premises in Pontives in 1965, SEVI company headquarters were transferred there in 1977. Nowadays, there is a new building where the old one used to be.

Around 1870, Alois (Levisc) Riffesser founded one of the first export businesses for wooden toys and souvenirs at Plan da Tieja. In 1877, he built the several-storey-high Maciaconi building as his home and company premises with shop, which was even mentioned in a poem by Leo Runggaldier about a rattling wooden toy. The building itself and Dossesplatz square became a popular motif for engravings and historical picture postcards.

After the 1830s, Haus Bugon was the seat of 'Insam & Prinoth', one of the largest pre-First World War toy manufacturers in Gröden. The company had a branch in Nuremberg in 1820 and, later on, one in London. There was a large warehouse as well as the manufacturing premises with offices and packaging workshop housed in a stable and the goods were transported from there to the point connecting up with the railway network.

The former stable at Panahof farm was extended by Johann Baptist Purger in 1854 for the purpose of packaging toys and, at a later date, altars, for export. A bridge over the Annabach stream was built at the same time to ease transport by sledge. Today, the packaging house is home to an eatery with a western façade consisting of porphyry stone blocks like the bridge, while its foundations are made of solid Gröden sandstone.

On the spot of the cultural centre there was once a multi-storey building constructed in 1854 in urban style by the manufacturer, Johann Baptist Purger, along with some council offices and doctor's surgery. It also served as a temporary warehouse for the toy manufacturer Anton Sotriffer. Both buildings influenced the character of Kirchplatz, until, in 1969, they had to make way for a congress hall for the 1970 Winter Olympics built at the turn of the century and bearing the name 'Kulturhaus Luis Trenker'.

The several-storey building was built in 1890 by the sculptor and publisher Anton Sotriffer. He opened a store selling general groceries here in 1920/21 that also sold wood carvings and wooden toys sourced from different producers in the valley and partly painted himself. An innovative spirit, Sotriffer experimented with new materials and products during the crisis between the two world wars. Sotriffer's shop still exists today.
