To celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Rittner railway, the Touriseum staged an exhibition at the Klobenstein station with some 40 posters by the artist Franz Lenhart.
Franz J. Lenhart (1898-1992) originated from Kufstein, studied in Vienna and Florence and in 1922 settled in Meran as a young graphic designer. Just two years later he achieved a breakthrough with his poster for Enit, the Italian national tourism agency: his "Visitate le Dolomiti" soon appeared all over Italy.
