Alpine pasture Museum Ardning

About 35 years ago, members began collecting alpine pasture equipment and gathering it in this Prentlhütte. Today, there are a considerable number of haymaking tools, butter and cheese-making utensils, as well as bells and traditional objects. In addition, the Prentlhütte as a building is a kind of living museum.

From the anteroom you enter the parlour on the right. Opposite, clearly visible on the doorframe, is the smokehouse, whose brick hearth is still regularly heated with an open fire until the smoke rises through the door, up the open anteroom and past the Prentl bell in the tower into the open air. The hut and its furnishings seem to have merged into a museum that illustrates the former life on the mountain pasture. The Alpine Museum can be reached on foot in just twenty minutes from the Ardning Alm, which can be reached by car.
