Internatsschule für Schisportlerinnen (Adaptation and Development of the Stams Boarding School for Female Ski-Sports Pupils)

Wirtsgasse 1, 6422 Stams, A
Architecture: Dieter Tuscher, Martin Maximilian Weiskopf (2008) Builder-owner: Verein Internatsschule für Schisportler Open to the public: partially Accessibility: Just after the trunk road turn-off towards the town centre. The "key-building” of modern Tyrol, the Stams Skiing Grammar School constructed in the late 1970s by Othmar Barth can be found in the immediate vicinity.

The former "Speckbacher” public house has served as a boarding school since the founding of the Skiing Grammar School in the 1970s. The hipped roof house originating from the Baroque era was carefully adapted by Dieter Tuscher and Martin Weiskopf to fit modern requirements. A long new building slightly sunk into the ground was built right next to the older construction. Two room-wings and the connecting passage enclose, as a U-shape, a grassed courtyard open to the west.

Fire Brigade and Club House

Thomas-Riß-Weg 1, 6422 Stams, A
Architecture: Kurt Rumplmayr, Albert Weber (1995-1997) Builder-owner: Gemeinde Stams TIP: Founded in the 13th century, the Stams Monastery with its monastery church rebuilt in High Baroque is equally worth seeing as the Stams Skiing Grammar School erected by Othmar Barth in the late 1970s.

On Dorfstraße between the walls of the Stams Monastery and the old rampart gate, the former "Spitz Garden” became the construction site for the Fire Brigade and Club House. Located on the ground floor, executed in exposed concrete, are the garages and ancillary rooms of the Fire Brigade. The upper floor, enveloped with a wood façade, holds the music rehearsal room and the library. By placing the building completely on the street, a square that opens towards the village center could be created for celebrations.
