Museo Etnografico Regole d'Ampezzo

The Museo Elizabettino, an exhibition of Ampezzo Antiques, was created as early as 1909. A small part of its collections is preserved in the Museum of the Ampezzo Regole, near the ebony workings, wrought iron, and silver filigree collections, wonderful examples of the traditional craftsmanship of the Ampezzo valley. The varied fashions and styles of the costumes document the traditional heritage of the community.

The new Museum housed in a renovated sawmill has been entirely redesigned, focussing on the Regole d'Ampezzo, the century old common heritage of the Cortina d'Ampezzo valley.

The scope of the exhibition is: to focus the attention of the visitors on the ancient decisions and choices that formed the forests and pasturelands that we admire today; to help visitors understand that over the centuries the collective management of the common heritage has been the main source of sustenance for the Ampezzo community; and finally to show that this ancient institution is still successfully functioning in our times.

Through a selection of objects and images the museum documents important cultural aspects of the Ampezzo community: the heritage of traditions and customs, the management of forests and pasturelands, and the century-old relationship of Man with the natural environment.


Opening hours: 15: 00-19: 00, Tuesday to Sunday - Closed on Mondays.

Admission: €7
