MUSEUM LIAUNIG / QUERKRAFT






Architects: Querkraft - Jakob Dunkl, Gerd Erhartt, Peter Sapp
Location: Neuhaus, Carinthia, Austria

The museum liaunig projects out on two sides over steep-sided ground, high up in the landscape. A cut through the hill marks a precise intervention in nature.

Planted into the site the new museum emerges more like a work of landart. Only a small part of the outstretched museum building is visible.

Cut through the hill, the main body of the museum slices through a densely-wooded, steep-sided embankment, providing an unparalleled view over the river drau seventy meters below.
