Plan de Corones (Kronplatz)
Kronplatz
A top-tier ski area in South Tyrol. At the summit stand the Messner Mountain Museum Corones, designed by Zaha Hadid, and the Lumen mountain photography museum.
Plan de Corones lies south of Brunico. Its domed summit is at 2,275 m, and in winter it is one of the largest ski areas in South Tyrol. At the top is the Messner Mountain Museum Corones (MMM Corones), designed by Zaha Hadid. It is built into the mountain and has cantilevered windows facing the peaks, and it tells the story of mountain climbing. Next door, the Lumen mountain photography museum displays alpine photography. Cable cars run from the area around Brunico, and the site operates in both summer and winter. Admission to each museum is about €12 to €15 (check the official website for current prices).
