history

In 1966, the forester Adolf Grabner founded a local museum on the topic of forestry in the Wildalpen community, which was called the Wildalpen Forest Museum from 1970 . As the objects in the collection kept expanding, the museum became too small. For a larger museum, the Neue Kasten, a storage building built in 1711 by the former Innerberg main trade union , was found and owned by the Austrian Federal Forests . In 1975 Grabner founded a museum association and the forest museum opened in Großreifling in 1979.
