It makes sense that the museum is perched atop a peak of the Dolomites since Messner is "an eminent source of the history of traditional mountaineering," per a statement from the MMM. The artifacts inside focus on mountaineering and Hadid's design responds in kind by locating the entrance at the high point and terracing the exhibition spaces inside toward a terrace with panoramic views of the surrounding mountains. Although only 1,000 square meters in size, the Messner Mountain Museum required the movement of 4,000 cubic meters of earth so it could embed itself within the peak.
