New Archaeological Highlights
Ten years after its comprehensive redesign, the permanent archaeological exhibition at MAMUZ Schloss Asparn/Zaya is more impressive than ever. Extraordinary new finds, including a Bronze Age dagger of the “South Russian type” and a Roman legionary helmet, tell the story of far-reaching contacts 5,000 years ago and heavily modified military equipment.
We present the highlights from the Prehistory and Historical Archaeology collection of the Lower Austrian Provincial Collections, which includes exciting objects from the cultural history of Lower Austria from the Ice Age to the Middle Ages.
The exhibition of unique objects in MAMUZ Schloss Asparn is complemented by the archaeological outdoor area with life-size, fully functional models of prehistoric residential and farm buildings, which invite you on a journey of discovery through 40,000 years of history.
