The Ladin Museum of Vigo di Fassa

The history, culture and art of the Val di Fassa's Ladin community

For two years now, the Fassa Ladin Museum, founded in 1979, has been located in a new modern building a few metres from the Ladin Cultural Institute. As well as its central site, the museum includes a series of local sections in different towns in the valley. The sections of Pera ("Molin de Pèzol" - watermill), Penia ("Segheria veneziana" - Venetian sawmill) and Moena ("Bottega del bottaio" - cooper workshop) have been open since the 1980s, while other sections, which are dedicated to weaving, painting and decorative arts, the Great War and the History of Mountaineering are currently being planned.

Visitors to the Vigo di Fassa Museum can explore the different aspects of Ladin civilisation, from the pre-historic period to manufacturing activities, institutional organisations to civil and religious ceremonies, beliefs and popular traditions. The Museum also offers an overview of historic events until the period of transformation that is marked by the advent of mountaineering and tourism.
