kärnten.museum – Gateway to Carinthia's past and present! (formerly Landesmuseum Rudolfinum) - The diversity of research fields represented in the Carinthian State Museum is enormous. Since 1884, the Carinthian State Museum has been one of Klagenfurt's most beautiful historicist buildings. Since 2022, it shines as kärnten.museum in new splendor and is now one of Austria's most modern museums. In the course of its general renovation, both architecturally and in terms of content, no stone has been left unturned. As Carinthia's universal museum, it offers a unique journey through the history, nature, and culture of our region. Let yourself be enchanted by the museum's exciting narrative, which uses the transformation of habitats, ideas, and cultures as its guiding principle. From the legendary "Lindwurm skull" to the impressive Dionysus mosaic, from the fascinating Grossglockner relief to the Siebenhirter sword – experience the diversity and depth of Carinthian history. The exhibition leads you from the earliest traces of human settlement to the Anthropocene, the age of man. Discover the extraordinary diversity of Carinthia's natural history, which is impressively and pointedly staged. The visit is always current due to its interdisciplinary approach. Follow the red thread of content through the regional and cultural history as well as the natural environment of Carinthia.
