Corones: Alpinism in its purest form
At eye level with the sky. Reduced to the essentials. At MMM Corones, alpinism is not celebrated, but examined.
What ropes, hooks and a hammer say about posture
The MMM Corones is dedicated to the history of traditional mountaineering, its equipment and the mindset involved. Located on the Kronplatz at an altitude of 2,275 metres, it is the final part of a series of six museums.
The exhibition explores what it means to face the mountain, not for fame, but as an internal confrontation. Spectacular views become part of the narrative, where technology, pioneering spirit and philosophy meet.
Alpinism at Plan de Corones
Spectacular views – the location of the MMM Corones on the Kronplatz is spectacular, offering a breathtaking view of the imposing Dolomite peaks from high above the Puster Valley. Reinhold Messner explains why traditional alpinism must be preserved and shared. The architecture, view and exhibition come together to create a place that sparks exciting questions and thoughts.
As a storyteller of traditional alpinism, Reinhold Messner is not interested in judging or dramatising. He is much more interested in condensing the experiences of the 25-year confrontation between man and mountain.
