European Heritage Days

Erről a helyről

The European Heritage Days 2026 will focus on the transience of our cultural heritage. You can look forward to the implementation in the open-air museum. Intangible and alive: Traditional craftsmanship in practice The open-air museum not only preserves historical buildings from rural Switzerland, but also the craftsmanship techniques with which they were built. For one day at Ballenberg, the focus is on two traditional building materials, lime and wood, and with them experts who demonstrate their craft and answer questions. There will also be guided tours of the newly rebuilt schoolhouse in Unterheid, where the lime tradition lives on. Come along and find out more about historic carpentry, the most complicated timber joints, millennia-old mortar recipes and the challenges we face when trying to build in the same way as two hundred years ago. The event will take place at the schoolhouse from Unterheid (1071) and the neighboring forge from Bümpliz (1052).
