Museion

A glass-cube building on the banks of the Talfer River, South Tyrol's most important museum of contemporary art, whose facades project artworks at night.

Museion moved to its current site in 2008. Designed by Berlin's KSV Architekten, its transparent glass cube has projectable media facades at both ends, which turn it into a city landmark after dark. The museum shows international contemporary art, installations and multimedia works, with a permanent collection of about 5,000 pieces and constantly changing exhibitions. Admission is about €10, and some time slots on Thursday evenings are free. Right outside is the Talfer River lawn, perfect for a stroll along the water.
