Touriseum

The Touriseum is the South Tyrolean Museum of Tourism. It is located at Trauttmansdoff Castle.

How to get there? Just take bus no. 1A or no. 4 in the city centre. Obviously there are also some parking sites for cars there. The Touriseum and the Botanic Gardens of Castel Trauttmansdorff are accessible with one common ticket. Prices: common ticket EURO 9; reductions EURO 6.50, family tickets EURO 20.

Opened in 2003, the South Tyrolean Museum of Tourism was thought as a further attraction to the visitors of the stunning Botanic Gardens of Castel Trauttmansdorff. In a stimulating and entertaining manner it shows the historical development of tourism in South Tyrol. Vacationers and travelers can kinda watch themselves in this museum, together with their motives for travelling, their behaviour, illusions and expectations.
