More than 140 pieces of art give an insight into the fascinating history of glass painting. Exhibits include an authentic place of work featuring two life-size puppets dressed as glass painters. The museum provides plenty of information about the history of glass, old glass painting techniques and family registers of the most popular glass painting dynasties. Courses and seminars are available as well. During the 19th century the colorful glass paintings made in Sandl were sold door to door by traveling merchants within the entire Austrian Monarchy.
