A small wooden house stands in the middle of the Sachsler village center. When you enter the interior via the gnarled wooden staircase, you immediately imagine yourself in a bygone era. The 28 detailed miniature models created by Christian Sigrist (1906-1987) provide an insight into everyday rural life in the past. We watch the wainwright making a wheel and observe how the blacksmith then winds up the iron tires. We imagine the hardships of winter logging and look forward with the participants to the feast after the house butchery. The miniatures are carved wooden testimonies that bring the crafts and agriculture of the first half of the 20th century to life. Experts appreciate the collection for its scientific content, children marvel at the small world and the older generation lose themselves in the memories.
