Did you know...?

...that the postcard has Carinthian roots!


The first postcard was created by Emanuel Herrmann, relative of the former hotel owners, the Moser family.

To keep the postcard, which has become a popular holiday souvenir, from falling into oblivion, the ARCOTEL Moser Verdino offers its own postcard collection.

Every year, the ARCOTEL Moser Verdino collection grows by one postcard depicting contemporary Carinthian art. Thus, young local artists are given the opportunity to present their work.

The following postcards can be purchased at the ARCOTEL Moser Verdino:
