Meran Municipal Museum.
The Meran (Merano) Municipal Museum was opened in
October, 1900 and is now housed in the former Roter
Adler inn. Thanks to the collecting activity of it
founder, Franz Innerhofer (1847-1918), the collection
includes high quality Gothic sculptures and Baroque
paintings of Tyrolean masters which today make up
the most precious part of the museum and have earned
admiration abroad, as well. In addition to these highlights,
the collection is rounded out by additional topics
from the cultural history of the Meran area: prehistory,
mineralogy, folk art from Meran and vicinity, and
paintings by Meran artists from the 19th and 20th
cen.
