Italy - Meran-Merano - The Kurhaus

The Kurhaus in Meran-Merano on the Passer Promenade, South Tyrol, northern Italy - used for congresses, spa facilities and culture. Constructed at a time when Meran became a popular spa resort due to the frequent visits of Empress Elisabeth of Austria and the aristocracy. The building's original structure, which is today's west wing, was constructed in 1874 while the newer wing was added in 1912 and 1914 by the Viennese Jugendstil architect Friedrich Ohmann. The exterior features a large portico with columns and is decorated with allegorical statues.
