South Tyrolean Archaeological Museum

The South Tyrol's Museum of Archaeology in Bolzano/Bozen, South Tyrol, documents the Prehistory and Ancient History of South Tyrol, from the Palaeolithic and Mesolithic Age (15,000 BC) to the Carolingian times (around 800 AD).

Within the overall historical framework, the Iceman ("Ötzi"), and his accompanying artefacts occupy a central position in the exhibition area. In addition to a section on the Iceman, the South Tyrolean Archaeological Museum, with an area of 1,200 square meters, presents outstanding finds from the Stone Age, the Bronze Age, the Iron Age, Roman times, and the time of Charlemagne.

Further, it also highlights the southern Alpine region as an important settlement area and crossroad of Prehistory and Ancient History.
