The charming Hochstudhaus - the name given to houses that are supported by a beam in the middle - was built in 1703 using traditional building techniques. It has been lovingly maintained ever since and has served as a "hands-on museum" since 1970. It offers authentic exhibitions on nature, people and society 150 years ago. Who knows what a "Gurrli" is, what a "Dünkelbohrer" was used for or how ceramic dishes were mended in the past? The answers can be found by exploring the museum on your own or by booking a guided tour.
