This small arolla pine sculpture of the holy family on their flight to Egypt dates back to the 17th century. It is one of the oldest works in Museum Gherdëina and an early example of wood carving in Val Gardena. Carved depictions of the nativity story were developed in the Middle Ages, and, as of the 18th century, lots of families in Val Gardena specialised in carving crib figurines. 

This weapon, used for defence but also as a hunting tool, demonstrates fine craftsmanship and ornamentation. It dates back to the Middle Bronze Age. It is extraordinary that it was found intact on the heavily travelled prehistoric mountain trail, the 'Troi Paian' on the Baléstberg near St. Jakob. Judging from the blade's characteristics, this artifact could be a votive offering from a person of high rank.

This 6cm copper tool attests to the transition from the Stone Age to the early Metal Age (3,200-2,200 BC). As part of a settled way of life, people began to extract and process copper to make tools. The discovery site of this axe, near a water source under a mighty dolomite block at the foot of the Sasso Lungo, suggests that it might have been a votive offering. 

The famous Iron Age discovery site at Col de Flam contains a number of weapons and tools as well as various objects for adorning the person, which were used in rituals. Alongside bronze bracelets, rings and a bead, there are numerous fastening clasps for clothing made of bronze and iron. They have been dated back to 400 to 15th century B.C. according to their decorative features and shapes.
