Landessonderschule mit Internat Mariatal (school and dormitory for the handicapped)
Architecture: Marte.Marte Architekten (2005-2007) Builder-owner: Land Tirol Accessibility: Take the road from Kramsach towards Aschau
The old Mariatal school buildings, clustering closely together, resemble an abbey. Marte-Marte architects wanted to re-develop the ensemble of buildings preserving those specific spatial qualities while, at the same time, adding architectural surplus value. The new dormitory continues, as it were, the west wing of the old building, thus closing off the ensemble from the street, creating a new interior courtyard dominated by the old main school building, under the federal law on the protection of monuments, and a new solitary structure.
