The Kunstlerhaus Anton Thuswaldner Museum

The Künstlerhaus and the surrounding sculpture gives you a glmps of the memoirs from Anton Thuswaldner and show exhibits from different work periods. Sculpture, painting, drawing, land art, action art - he faced all these tasks in the course of his long life and no material remained unknown to him. He irritated, provoked, admonished and shook up, his sharp humor spared no one, not even his own person. The historic building was built before 1900 by Nikolaus Gassner. Around the turn of the century, he began to develop the Kaprun valley for tourism. After the death of Anton Thuswaldner, the villa was carefully renovated by the artist's daughter.The hous is a retreat, a place of contemplation, a space where humans and art meet to communicate, a place full of secrets. - Dr. Edith Defant-Thuswaldner
