Albin Moroder

Albin Moroder (born 6 December 1922 in Schlitters in Zillertal; died 17 November 2007 in Mayrhofen) was an Austrian sculptor.

Albin grew up in Schlitters in Zillertal, in 1927 the whole family moved to a house in Mayrhofen newly built by their father, where a lively tourism industry flourished and brought an economic boom to the then poor region.

After half a year school attendance, however, Albin Moroder decided to renounce to his education because he did not feel well cared for, and yet completed the Holzbildhauer teaching within the family.

The bronze sculpture "Grief - Hope - Confidence" was erected in 2002 on behalf of the community Mayrhofen and in front of the local church on the area of the former churchyard.

[6] Albin Moroder worked until his death and was still creative and presented in a private audience in November 2005 to Pope Benedict XVI a crucifix.
