TOWER MUSEUM IN OETZ
TOWER MUSEUM IN OETZ What offers the tower museum? If you enter this museum you'll be surprised at the architectural variety, ranging from the Romanesque period to today. Different kinds of housing are presented, ranging from poor medieval housing conditions to spacious, light-flooded rooms of the early modern age. The few pieces of furniture are a mixture of rural and noble pieces, as it was the custom in the beautiful houses of Oetz.The museum mostly focuses on paintings! The early paintings are dedicated to religious themes. The museum's highlights are Alpine landscape paintings, which first turned up some 200 years ago. Many known artists were witnesses of the discovery of the Ötztal Alps and their paintings are valuable documents. In the villages at the entrance of the Ötztal valley a strong and witty folk art movement was present.
