Ötzi discoverers among you
(f1) Participation Activity
Where did Ötzi live? Together, we will build a mini-Stone Age house and comfortably settle down in it. But how did Ötzi sleep? And what did he eat? For a little bit of energy as a between-meal snack, we open up nuts with rocks, and at the end, we will celebrate the successful construction of the house with applause and a certificate of participation for the little Stone Age architects.
Target Group: Families with small children (ages 4-6)
Duration: 2 hours
Cost: ticket course 1, 2 and 3 +8 euros (min 250 euros)

How Stone Age people lived
(f2) Activity Tour with Practical Workshop
If you assume that the age difference between you and your parents was one step, there would be 176 steps between you and Ötzi. How far do you go when you take 176 steps?
A participation tour carries us away into the Stone Age: What do dried sloe berries taste like? What can be made from the seed of these fruits? Is it possible to make fire with rocks? How do you drill holes with flint? And how do you chop fresh wood with copper axes? Is it possible to sew leather? What does bread baked over an open fire taste like when covered with a hazelnut spread that you ground yourself? Does an Ötzi bow aim well? We enter the results of our experiments in a Stone Age passport, and by the end, we will become genuine Ötzi experts. The bracelets that are made during the course of the tour can be taken home as a souvenir of the excursion into the Stone Age.
Target Group: families with children of elementary school age
Duration: 3 hours
Cost: ticket course 1, 2 and 3 +12 euros (min 300 euros)

Stone Age amulet
(f3) Tour with Practical Workshop
During our visit to the exhibition, we make a detour to the archery range and also stop off at the Stone Age huts, where we drill and polish stone the way Ötzi did. Will we make a pendant out of it? An amulet? Who can drill the hole the fastest? At the end, we weave strips of linden into a band that can hold our piece of jewelry on our bodies.
Target Group: families with children of middle school and high school age
Duration: 2.5 hours
Cost: ticket course 1, 2 and 3 +10 euros (min 280 euros)

(f4) Costume Tour
A theatrical journey through the archeoParc and the time of Ötzi: Suma, the Stone Age woman, will welcome you to her village and excitedly explain the history of a man who had recently been here traveling through. Is she telling about Ötzi? The simplicity of the representational medium and the vital body language of Irene Egger, archeoParc museum educator, will convince all visitors, large and small. Afterwards, there will be an opportunity for an aperitif and a discussion with the actress.
Target Group: families with children age 7 and above
Duration: 50 minutes

A night with Ötzi
(f5) Spending the Night in Stone Age Houses
You bring a sleeping pad, something to grill, and stories to tell over the campfire. After a brief tour through the building and the grounds, we will arrange a place to sleep and build a nice campfire. That’s where we’ll grill our dinner and listen to our stories, to the crackling of the fire, and to the sounds in the woods and meadow… The next morning, the early risers who are hungry for the hunt will head to the archery range. To conclude, a simple breakfast will await us in the Museumscafé, followed by a practical workshop.
