  • The Supreme Discipline of Mountaineering
    The Supreme Discipline of Mountaineering To what heaven would it lead me to climb a mountain that flew? Christoph Ransmayr, “The Flying Mountain” MMM Corones on Kronplatz – between the Gader Valley, Olang and the Puster Valley – is the final act in the Messner Mountain Museum project (which comprises a total of six facilities). On the edge of South Tyrol’s mountain plateau with the most spectacular views, in the unique museum architecture created by Zaha Hadid, I present the crowning of traditional mountaineering. Kronplatz offers views beyond the borders of South Tyrol to all points of the compass: from the Lienz Dolomites in the east to the Ortler in the west, from the Marmolada in the south to the Zillertal Alps in the north. The museum is a mirror of the world of my childhood - the Geislerspitzen, the central buttress of the Heiligkreuzkofel (the most difficult climb in my whole life) and the glaciated granite mountains of the Ahrn Valley. On Kronplatz I present the development of modern mountaineering and 250 years of progress with regard to the equipment. I speak of triumphs and tragedies on the world’s most famous peaks – the Matterhorn, Cerro Torre, K2 – and the depiction of our activity, however contradictory it may seem. As in my other museums, I shed light on alpinism with the help of relics, thoughts, works of art (pictures and sculptures) and by reflecting the outside mountain backcloth in the interior of MMM Corones. As the storyteller of traditional mountaineering, it is not my intention to judge or dramatise but simply to condense human experience of a world that is my world, of the 250-year-old contest between man and the mountain.

Accompany us on a walk. Farmers Market at Chiusa/ Klausen A visit to the state capital is almost obligatory when you spend your holidays in South Tyrol. Bolzano is certainly the most Italian city in the region. This is also due the fact that you can see architectural remnants of fascism all around town, such as the court building or the eternal controversy of the monument. On the menu of various restaurants, you will also find typical dishes from the Tyrolean cuisine like Spaghetti Fromgole, Schlutzkrapfen, Tiramisù or Strauben. In Bolzano you will find women dressed in traditional wear like the Dirndl next to noble shops like Dolce & Gabbana and the thick dialect of the Sarntal Valley next to precise High German language. The Ötzi Museum You shouldn’t miss the exhibition about Ötzi, the Ice Man: A mummy from the Copper Age, 5.300 years old, recovered in 1991 with its clothing and Thursdays from May to October equipment. The permanent exhibition in the South Tyrolean Archeology in Piazza Tinne from 07.30 a.m.

  • The Tyrolean Alpine Frontier: from Trieste & the Dolomites to Innsbruck
    The Tyrolean Alpine Frontier: from Trieste & the Dolomites to Innsbruck 2021 15 SEP – 1 OCT 2021 Code: 22135 Tour Leaders Dr Gregoria Manzin Physical Ratings Explore the rich history and exquisite scenery of this unique region of Northern Italy and Austria, from its prehistoric archaeology to its vibrant contemporary art and architecture. Overview Travel with Dr Gregoria Manzin on this fascinating journey through the Tyrol, a region divided by a modern border in 1919, with South Tyrol given to Italy and the North Tyrol to Austria. Trace the history of this beautiful, mountainous region. Long fought over by European powers, this is a unique region where local traditions, cuisine and language have prevailed. Come face-to-face with 'Ötzi the Iceman', a prehistoric man who was naturally mummified in the icy conditions of the mountains. Discovered in 1995 on the Similaun Glacier, his body, clothing and artefacts have provided a wealth of information about the Copper Age, even after 5300 years! Wander the ancient Roman streets of UNESCO World Heritage Listed Aquileia, and visit the Early Christian basilica with its beautiful and fascinating floor mosaics. Towering over the Tyrolean valleys are magnificent medieval castles, many with well-preserved wall paintings and furnishings, testament to the centuries of power struggles to control the territory. We explore some of the best examples, including Hocheppan, Tirolo, Buonconsilio and Roncolo. The region formed part of the Habsburg empire. Follow their influence on the landscape and culture from Trieste to Innsbruck, illustrated through fortified castles, grand palaces and gardens, and important art collections. The tour culminates with a visit to the Tyrolean State Museum (the 'Ferdinandeum') that houses works by Cranach, Rembrandt and Brueghel.

  • Summer in the Kronplatz Region
    01. APRIL 2020 Summer in the Kronplatz region Summer Legendary and Fabulously Beautiful – The UNESCO World Heritage Site of the South Tyrol-Südtirol Dolomites “Highly distinctive mountain landscapes that are of exceptional natural beauty with aesthetic appeal” are worthy of being declared a world heritage site. Anyone who views the “pale peaks” glowing in the last light of the evening above dark forests understands immediately why it was that in 2009, the South Tyrol-Südtirol Dolomites were inscribed in the list of world heritage sites because of their scenic uniqueness as well as because of their geological and geomorpological particularities. kronplatz.com/en/dolomites-unesco Three Nature Parks One important aspect is also the botanical variety of more than 2,400 plant species which are especially protected in the extensive nature parks and national parks. A total of three out of South Tyrol-Südtirol’s seven nature parks lie within the territory of the Kronplatz region: the Fanes-Senes- Braies/Fanes-Sennes-Prags and Puez/Odle-Geisler in the Dolomites and the Vedrette di Ries-Aurina/Rieserferner-Ahrn Nature Park in the area of the Central Alps. The Visitor Centers inform visitors about dealing with nature attentively and about the special features of each region. kronplatz.com/en/nature-parks Earth Pyramids One extraordinary natural phenomenon in South Tyrol-Südtirol is the earth pyramids. They can be marveled at, for example, in Plata-Platten near Perca-Percha and in Terento-Terenten.
