MMM Ortles - Messner Mountain Museum

The MMM Ortles Museum is located in Solda at about 1,900 meters above sea level.

This venue deals with ice through the display of paintings with views of the Ortles and equipment, ancient and modern, which were used in climbing and ice climbing, skiing and expeditions to the poles, while outside the ice royal peaks embrace the valley and the museum.

This site was built from scratch thanks to the collaboration of Reinhold Messner with the architect Arnold Gapp.

This structure is accessed through a large opening cut into the side of a small hill: once you enter, a ramp leads deep into the ground as in an artificial cave, made of exposed reinforced concrete.

The structure is illuminated by natural light that comes from above thanks to a long cut in the surface of the ground, a cut that appears almost like a crevasse in a glacier.
