In 1965 Wander Bertoni purchased an abandoned water mill with adjacent house and barn in the midst of vineyards in Winden near Lake Neusiedl. Step by Step, he lovingly restored and adapted all the buildings. In 2001 he had his friend, the architect Johannes Spalt (who recently died), erect a gallery pavilion right next to his studio. The place itself has an amazingly powerful aura; moreover, the buildings surround an utterly idyllic garden with a pond. The newcomer, the museum for the egg collection, though aligned with the water mill tower, the house and the studio, is at the same time outside the self-contained ensemble. It stands beside the entrance drive and creates a kind of entrance gate in conjunction with the gallery pavilion.
