Intro
The Lötschental Museum is a place of cultural heritage preservation and documentation, a space for encounters and exchange.
The Lötschental Museum is a place for the preservation and documentation of cultural assets, a place for encounters and exchanges. The collection focuses on alpine farming and agriculture, alpinism and tourism, living and housekeeping, clothing, traditional costumes and textile production, crafts, handicrafts and folk art, customs (masks, "Herrgottsgrenadiere"), faith and cult (paraments, folk religiosity) and regional iconography (painting, photography, advertising, posters). The permanent exhibition takes you into a world full of traditions and customs. Over 100 wooden masks offer you a complete panorama of the development of masks in the Lötschental from the 19th century to the present day. On your tour, you will come across an imposing Bietschhorn model, magnificent woollen blankets, a medieval archive chest... You will encounter evidence of agriculture, home decor and clothing. And you will discover the depiction of the country and its people in photography and art.
