The marble world of Laas

The Laas Marble World invites you to experience the legendary Lasa marble with all your senses. Surrounded by the impressive nature of the Vinschgau Valley/Val Venosta, visitors learn about the history of this special stone, from its historical beginnings of quarrying in the Jennwand, a mountain above Laas/Lasa, to the arduous transport on the unique inclined railway and the modern processing technology of today.

History comes alive in the Laas Marble World. Numerous display boards bear testament to the hard work of the quarrymen and the skilful processing techniques that have made Lasa marble world-famous. A particular highlight is the sculpture park, where impressive works of art made from the gleaming white marble can be admired.

In addition to its fascinating history, the marble world also offers a place of rest and recreation. Shady seating and elegant marble tables invite you to linger. There is a marble sandpit for younger visitors while those interested can try their hand at carving a block of marble themselves.

Sanitary facilities and fresh drinking water are available on site to make your stay as pleasant as possible. The Laas Marble World is an experience for the whole family: a place where nature, culture, and craftsmanship come together in a special way.
