Kaprun Museum, Zell am See

Kaprun Museum in located in a 400-year-old stone farmhouse, near the St. Margaret church. The house itself is quite attractive. The museum is dedicated to local history and tourism. It occupies two floors, with the first room devoted to local archeology. A great part of the museum shares Kaprun's history and development in the 19th and 20th century as a tourist attraction. A photographic row will tell you the story of Kaprun from its tourism pioneers, the first ski resorts and the construction of the Glockner-Kaprun Power Plant and the Mooserboden reservoir, which completely changed the image of the region and made Kaprun the Austrian symbol of reconstruction after World War II.
