10 Specialty Museums in Canton of Graubunden That You Shouldn't Miss

October 14, 2021 Rosalyn Ihle

Quaint alpine villages and great skiing entice travelers to the Grisons. The sparsely populated region of eastern Switzerland contains the source of the Rhine and Inn rivers, 140 square miles of glaciers and dense pine forests. Join the ski action at the resorts of St. Moritz, Davos and Arosa or stake a lofty claim with a visit to Juf, which boasts the highest altitude of any inhabited village in the Alps. In summer, take a hike through the Engadine Valley in the unspoiled beauty of Swiss National Park.

Excellent museum! Many great ideas for our own Winter Sports Museum! Well stocked with all things Winter sports. The old sleds were amazing as well as the original lifts and gondolas.

Museum Alpin

Reviewed By Swissbulgarican - Lausanne, Switzerland

Absolutely worth the visit here! You get real insight into the people and industrieds surrounding Pontresina over the last few centuries. Cool mountain climbing artifacts, pictures, and films document this. The museum is a very old building showing how life was a few hundred years ago. Interesting as well for all aged-children.

Bahnmuseum Albula

Reviewed By davidtova - Afula, Israel

I especially enjoyed the short movies on former workers at the various train stations. Fortunately there are English subtitles. There is much subtle oral history to learn from these video recordings; absolutely fascinating. Besides that, wander and see what interests you. But leave yourself extra time (at least 2 hours) to take the Darlux ski lift for viewing wonderful vistas. Another tip: the museum coffee shop is understaffed and can waste your precious time, so bring food or a snack along; or be prepared to wait.

Cafe Badilatti

Reviewed By Bettagettalife - Nyon District, Switzerland

There is a nice collection of everything to do with coffee manufacture, and artefacts. The museum starts off with an explanation of coffee production world-wide. However, all the explanations are in German and Italian. At the end, you can get a really good cup of coffee and delicious cakes in the little café. Friendly staff.
