Intro

The Drachenloch Museum is located in the middle of the village in the old school and town hall. It displays prehistoric finds from the Drachenloch, a cave above Vättis, where Palaeolithic hunters camped for the summer around 53,000 years ago.

The main focal points of the exhibition are the finds from the Drachenloch caves, such as the Stone Age cave-bear's bones, and documents dating from the period of excavation from 1917–1923. The talented artist Toni Nigg (1908–2000) was present during the excavations, and has lovingly made the museum into a real gem, also including an overview of local geology. Visit by arrangement only.
