Intro
Exhibition of old fishing utensils
The museum and its museum room are dedicated to the history of fishing and the associated objects. The museum room takes visitors back to around 1900 and invites them on a voyage of discovery into the world of rare collector's items.
The Mettlen Cantonal Fishing Museum has been in existence for 28 years. Situated in the middle between Näfels and Netstal, it was built by Glarus fishermen as a labor of love right next to the cantonal fish hatchery. The fishing museum in Netstal displays old fishing utensils from sport and professional fishermen. Since 1996, the museum has been located next to the cantonal fish hatchery at Mettlenseeli on the northern border of the municipality. The location for the new Canton Glarus Fishing Museum could hardly have been chosen more ideally. In the middle of standing and flowing waters and next to the beautiful natural landscape of the Mettlenseeli.
