Otto Moroder

Otto Moroder (born 29 January 1894 in Ortisei in Val Gardena; died 27 July 1977 in Mayrhofen, Zillertal) was an Austrian sculptor from South Tyrol.

The family adopted a boy named Rudolf Geisler-Moroder, who founded a woodcarving school in Elbigenalp in the Lechtal.

The Emperor gave the artist in a private audience on 16 September 1916 in the Schönbrunn Palace and awarded him with a golden clock.

[3] Because of his style and his motives, Otto Moroder was nicknamed the "Albin Egger-Lienz of Wood Carver".

The large wooden cross in the cemetery chapel was created by the sculptor Otto Moroder.
