Tagusa (Tagusens), a component locality of the municipality of Castelrotto (Kastelruth), features a lovely little museum, the School Museum. It introduces its visitors to the everyday life of students between 1933 and 1993. Opened in 2005, the museum was established right there where the former school has had its place. Nowadays you can watch class rooms and teachers' rooms.

Also numerous items from schoolchildren from the surrounding farms can be admired. On display are historic school bags, blackboards or hand-written exercise books from the time of the Austro-Hungarian Empire to the period of Fascism and the present day.
