Heimatmuseum Davos

Das Heimatmuseum hat eine lange Geschichte. Der Weg von der einfachen Walser Siedlung über die verschiedenen Auswanderungswellen und den Aufstieg des Tales zur Hoffnung Tuberkulosekranker aus aller Welt bis zum Umbau zur heutigen modernen Sport- und Kongressstadt war lang und bewegt. Dokumente, Bilder und Objekte machen die Lokalgeschichte sichtbar.

Engadine Museum

The Museum of Engadine Culture was built in 1906, on the initiative of Riet Campell, a passionate collector. It looks at first glance like an age-old Engadine house. The outside has all the typical features: the sgraffito-style door and window frames, the Romansh inscriptions, and the traditional oriel window. In fact, the house is little more than a hundred years old and was constructed as museum by the famous architect Nicolaus Hartmann Junior of St. Moritz. The panelled living rooms, or stüvas as they are known locally, have come from farmhouses and village houses in the Engadine and surrounding valleys. They give you a wonderful insight into the lifestyles of affluent local families over the last five centuries.

Castello di Montebello

Reviewed By jmplagman

We were looking for a nice place to go in Switzerland that will only be a few hours travel from Como and this popped up in our search. It only took us almost 2.5 hour to reach the Castle and it did not dissapoint. IThe place was beautiful and it has a perfect view of the other castles surrounding it.
