2019-01     BRUNECK - BRUNICO

This year our cultural side trip from Stubaital was a visit to Brunico/Bruneck in Südtirol /Alto Adige.  We passed tolls, small towns, castles and churches  and got to our destination :  The Messner Mountain Museum.  It is a castle that houses part of Mr. Messner's collection from different countries where he went climbing.

and  a few pieces of the collection

We then drove to town, caught the last rays of the sun and had a lovely late lunch with panino and espresso.
