“Our guide was careful and deliberate to provide the history and virtues of Chur.”
Samstagern
Samstagern is a small village in the Zurich region and belongs to the municipality of Richterswil. The village is located beyond the A3 highway. The old Sagi is a museum that reminds of the old craftsmanship. It has existed since at least 1656 and the large mechanical mortar works have been restored. The community of Richterswil is located between the chain of hills of the Höhronen and the western shore of Lake Zurich on the foothills of the Schwyz Alps. Richterswil has a quaint village center with well-preserved half-timbered houses and is well worth a visit. The surrounding hilly landscape and Lake Zurich offer many opportunities for water sports and land sports

“Some of the audio guides didn't work. A really lovely exhibition — it was well worth it.”
“For me, it was a very good guided tour, even though, as a long-time resident of Einsiedeln (Matura 1964), I already knew quite a lot. On today's visit, I brought along a young man from the neighbourhood who had never been to Einsiedeln before. It was an interesting experience for both of us.”
“Had a fun time. Was interesting and educational plus great chocolate samples and to purchase.”
