Zillertal Regional Museum

“Ental” farm was built in 1713 (confirmed by the date on a ridge pole) in Burgstall/Schwendau. In 1991 it was decided to remove the farm from its original location and to rebuild it as a museum in Zell am Ziller in order to preserve and safeguard this centuries-old and culturally valuable structure.

Since the start of construction, when the museum’s foundation was rebuilt on the museum grounds, the regional museum has grown steadily: a workroom, the “Machkammer”, equipped with tools from the old days, was set up on the threshing floor.

Furthermore, a house chapel, baking oven, house well and fire hut were established and a house garden was created.
