Larchgut residence
The Larchgut Ansitz is a protected architectural monument in Niederlana, a district of the market town of Lana in South Tyrol . Today the property houses the South Tyrolean Fruit Tree Museum.
history
The property was built in the 13th century by the lords of Lana-Brandis and was first mentioned in a document in 1301. A late Gothic extension was built around 1530 . For a long time the Larchgut was owned by the Lercher family, so 1301 Adelheid Lercherin and 1305 Hilprand Lercher are attested as owners, until it came to Messrs. Miller von Aichholz and later became community property . The property has been the seat of the South Tyrolean Fruit Growing Museum since 1990 and shows extensive documentation of the history and current situation of fruit growing in Lana on an area of 2000 m².
