## Burial mounds and a princely house from the Hallstatt period

Monumental burial mounds, a lead wagon unique in Europe and a reconstructed princely house: at the Keltenwelt Frög you can explore the Hallstatt period without any strenuous climbs. The trip back to Celtic times works with no prior knowledge needed.

The open-air museum in the municipality of Rosegg shows how people here lived around 3,000 years ago, what they believed and whom they traded with.

## Why the Keltenwelt Frög is worth it for a quiet outing

A well-developed network of paths leads through the outdoor site to the surviving burial mounds, among them a princely grave rebuilt as a display grave. Because the Landesmuseum Kärnten regularly puts on special exhibitions, a second visit is worthwhile too.

## What to expect

- Museum centre with a reconstructed princely house
- Network of paths through the outdoor site to the historic burial mounds
- Changing special exhibitions by the Landesmuseum Kärnten
- Audio guide in several languages, also in a children’s version
- Free admission once a day with valid photo ID

## Good to know

In heavy rain the Keltenwelt stays closed, because large parts of it are outdoors. A look at the weather forecast saves you a wasted journey.
