The Richterswil local museum in the venerable "Haus zum Bären", a post-and-beam building dating from 1749, has a treasure trove of drawings and engravings from the 18th and 19th centuries, the age of tourism in the village. Old films, reports, pictures and photographs document the heyday of the industry, industrialists, workers, production methods and village life. The museum houses the archives of the Zürichsee newspaper from 1865 onwards. A pharmacy, a cobbler's workshop, a kitchen and music reproduction equipment date from around 1900. Exhibitions on historical themes are held in November. Several beautiful rooms are rented out for various events and exhibitions.
