Fascinating palace for those interested in learning about mountain life all over the world. Senior citizen, family, and children discounts are available. Parking at the bottom was free on Sundays and is in within about 100 meters from the entrance. You do walk up a fairly steep hill. Once inside the facility is very clean. There are many stairs to climb, husband did notice an elevator near the tower area. We were impressed with the amount of displays with adequate room to move without people bunching up together. Information was available in three languages. We got to tour the whole castle and each area was targeted by location and people. Maps were displayed showing the location being showcased. To get the most out of this museum plan on spending 2-3 hours. There are cinemas throughout, displays, and you are presented a map with a suggested route to follow. This is a showcase of collections and the castle is not the target of the visit. Young children may not appreciate the collection. Note on Sundays not much was open in the town itself. We found one open bar. Check the website as hours change season to season. Noticed that one visitor’s review stated no photos allowed beyond the first floor. We never saw any signs anywhere stating this, so I recommend you check with the staff before you begin your tour. We did notice some no touch signs and were respect. Lastly, the tower stairs are sometimes dark and narrow so it may be difficult to pass. The tower floor at the top was unnerving as it was weathered and you could feel the bowing as you walked around. The views were incredible but we got off quickly as we didn’t want to be up there with too many people. All in all we recommend this castle if you are in the area.

The previous day we visited Messner mountain Firmian and we were delighted, so we wanted to give an opportunity to this one. The ticket costs 14 euros but is free with the ritten card. The museum was super disappointing. The locations were numbered but you cannot find any signal related to this. The pieces organization seems totally random. There are some dark rooms that you cannot almost see nothing. There’s only one person working at the ticket entrance and another one in the shop. The place looked barely abandoned. We did one hour car to see this but I can assure you Rios museum is not worth it at all. Not recommended even with the free entrance.

La visita al castello si è rivelata un’esperienza piuttosto ambigua, soprattutto per chi — come me — si aspettava di immergersi nell’atmosfera autentica di un castello medievale. La struttura, pur imponente all’esterno, perde gran parte del suo fascino storico una volta varcata la soglia. Gli interni, infatti, sono stati completamente ristrutturati e adattati per ospitare un museo, sacrificando gran parte dell’originalità architettonica e dell’identità storica del castello stesso. Il museo ospita diverse mostre dedicate a culture e popolazioni provenienti da varie parti del mondo, un’intenzione sicuramente interessante, ma realizzata in modo piuttosto confuso. Le esposizioni appaiono poco curate, con oggetti accostati senza un chiaro filo conduttore o spiegazioni approfondite che aiutino il visitatore a comprenderne il contesto. Più che un’esperienza educativa o immersiva, si ha spesso la sensazione di trovarsi davanti a una raccolta di “cianfrusaglie” disposte in modo casuale. Per chi sceglie di visitare questo luogo attratto dall’idea di camminare tra mura secolari e scoprire la storia del castello, l’esperienza risulta quindi deludente. I segni del passato sono stati quasi del tutto cancellati o sovrastati da allestimenti museali moderni che non rendono giustizia né al luogo né agli oggetti esposti. Un consiglio per i futuri visitatori: se il vostro interesse è vivere un’autentica atmosfera medievale o conoscere meglio la storia del castello stesso, potreste restare delusi. Tuttavia, se siete appassionati di musei etnografici (anche se non troppo approfonditi), potreste comunque trovare spunti curiosi. Ps: prezzo d’ingresso secondo me da rivedere.

قلعة برونيك: حارس التاريخ ومهد الثقافات الجبلية تقف قلعة برونيك (Brunico Castle) بشموخ على قمة تل يطل على مدينة برونيك الهادئة في جنوب تيرول الإيطالية. بُنيت في القرن الثالث عشر (ذُكرت عام 1271)، وكانت نقطة الانطلاق لتأسيس مدينة برونيك. شهدت القلعة توسعات وتحصينات عبر العصور، حيث أضاف الأمير-الأسقف ألبرت فون إن الأسوار والخندق، وقام الأمير-الأسقف أولريش بوتش برفع البرج وتوسيع الأجنحة. استضافت القلعة العديد من الأساقفة، وشهدت حصارًا وأسرًا للكاردينال نيكولو كوزانو في القرن الخامس عشر. بعد فترات من الاستخدام كسجن وإيواء للقوات، خضعت لعمليات ترميم وتحولت أجزاء منها إلى فصول دراسية عام 1969. برونيك: لؤلؤة وادي بوستر برونيك (Bruneck / Brunico) هي أكبر مدينة في وادي بوستر (Puster Valley)، وتقع على ارتفاع 838 مترًا بين قمم جبال الألب، مما يمنحها جمالًا طبيعيًا وهواءً نقيًا. تُعرف بأنها المركز الجغرافي والثقافي والاقتصادي للوادي، وتتميز بطابع ريفي ساحر، وشوارعها القديمة الملونة مثل "Stadtgasse" التي تعج بالمتاجر والمقاهي. تاريخيًا، كانت برونيك نقطة تجارية مهمة بين أوغسبورغ والبندقية. متحف MMM Ripa: نافذة على روح الجبال في عام 2004، استحوذت مؤسسة Cassa di Risparmio على القلعة، وتم ترميمها بين عامي 2009 و 2011، حيث حافظت على جمالها التاريخي وأُضيفت إليها لمسات عصرية من الخشب والزجاج والصلب. اليوم، تحتضن قلعة برونيك متحف MMM Ripa (متحف ميسنر الجبلي ريبا)، أحد متاحف أسطورة تسلق الجبال راينهولد ميسنر الستة. يركز المتحف على عوالم شعوب الجبال، عارضًا أفلامًا وثائقية عن مغامرات ميسنر وقطعًا أثرية من ثقافات جبلية حول العالم، مما يقدم رحلة بصرية وثقافية فريدة. أسرار القلعة وكنوزها المخفية: فن العمارة في انسجام: تم الحفاظ على اللوحات الجدارية الأصلية والممرات الخشبية، بينما تم تصميم الإضافات الحديثة (من الخشب الرمادي الفاتح والزجاج والصلب) بذكاء لتميز بين القديم والجديد. عروض فنية عابرة: تستضيف القلعة معارض فنية مؤقتة، مثل معرض "Mantra Planets" للفنانة باربرا سيبر في عام 2025. إطلالة تأسر الألباب: توفر نوافذ وأسوار القلعة إطلالات بانورامية خلابة على قمة بلان دي كورونيس، وادي أورينا، وجبال الألب زيلرتال. سهولة الوصول: القلعة مهيأة لاستقبال الجميع، مع مواقف سيارات ومداخل يمكن الوصول إليها بالكراسي المتحركة. إذا أعجبتك هذه المراجعة، يرجى إضافة...
