Messner Mountain Museum Firmian fills Sigmundskron Castle with Reinhold Messner's wide-ranging meditation on mountains, climbing, religion, geology, and alpine culture. The castle setting above Bolzano gives the museum a sense of drama before you even enter.
This is one of the strongest Bolzano-area sights for travellers interested in the Alps. Allow time for both the exhibitions and the views from the castle complex, and check seasonal opening dates.
