The Dörflihaus Museum displays valuable documents and objects from the Schächental, including those relating to agriculture and alpine farming, forestry and timber, transport and tourism, people and shepherds, traditional costumes and handicrafts from the period from 1290 to the Second World War. The heart of the exhibition is the foundation charter from 1196 and the yearbook from 1290/1515, which lists important family names from Spiringen that played a key role in the founding of the Swiss Confederation in 1291, such as Walter von Spiringen, Stauffacher, Fürst, Brücker, Herger and Imhof. Other highlights include the goldsmith's work of the internationally renowned Zurich goldsmith Meinrad Burch-Korrodi (sacred objects from Bishop Vonderach), original chronometry for measuring the time of the International Klausen Race of 1922 and the document from 1196, which regulates the border between Uri and Glarus on the Urnerboden.
