Ötzi Dorf

Ötzi Village is an open-air museum in Umhausen that reconstructs Stone Age buildings and tools and displays them in a natural setting. Various ancient animal breeds can be seen there as they lived in settlements back then.

The museum came into being following the discovery of a mummy in the Alps that had been frozen there for thousands of years. The reconstructions are based on what experts learned about how people lived in the mountains during that period.

The site shows how people in the Stone Age made and used everyday items. You can see how different crafts worked back then and what role animals and plants played in daily life.

The site is open during the warmer months and can be explored on your own or with a guide. You should wear appropriate footwear since you will walk on paths and across grass, and the weather in the mountains can change quickly.

At this site, visitors can see ancient animal breeds from the Stone Age that have nearly disappeared and are rarely found on modern farms. These animals offer an unexpected look at the variety that existed thousands of years ago.
