Innsbruck is home to a number of museums of international repute, particularly those under the Tyrolean State Museums umbrella.
A must-see is the Tyrolean Folk Art Museum (Tyroler Volkskunstmuseum) adjoining the Hofkirche in the new Abbey (Neues Stift), home to extensive local art collections.
Representing a variety of Tyrolese themes, highlights include replicas of brick-built houses with oriel windows from the Upper Inn Valley and half-timbered houses from the Ziller Valley, along with a rich store of costumes, traditional furniture, tools, glass, pottery, textiles, and metalwork.
