This video shot by drone captures the late Zaha Hadid's Messner Mountain Museum, which is half buried into the peak of an Alpine mountain in Italy.

The footage offers a drone's eye view of the large volumes of the museum, which appear to burst through the rockface of Mount Kronplatz at 2,275 metres above sea level.

Dezeen commissioned videographer Alaïa Fonk to shoot the film during a trip to South Tyrol to explore the region's contemporary architecture scene.

Fonk's footage shows off the museum's curved forms. One cantilevers over the valley, while two others form windows, offering views from the underground galleries.

More glass-reinforced fibre concrete forms emerge from the ground to create canopies that frame the building's entrance.

The museum is the final instalment in a series of six mountain museums in South Tyrol commissioned by Reinhold Messner – the first climber to reach the summit of Mount Everest without additional oxygen.
