Alpine Museum

The Alpine Museum displays mountain artifacts, climbing equipment, and artworks within a gray rococo castle topped with a copper turreted roof.

Founded in 1911 by the German and Austrian Alpine Society, the museum endured severe damage during World War II before reopening its doors in 1996.

The museum contains the Schlagintweit collection of 200 watercolors, drawings, and lithographs depicting expeditions through India and Central Asia.

The museum includes the largest Alpine library worldwide, a café named Isarlust offering meals, and outdoor seating during summer months.

The outdoor garden features labeled trees, rocks, and alpine flora, alongside geological specimens representing major rock formations of the Alps.
