About

A romantic park with attractions like glacial potholes from the Ice Age, a diorama, a lookout tower, and a typical Swiss Chalet with a Bistro & Shop. The newly opened "Felsenwelt" is an underground path through times and rooms. The museum located in the Swiss chalet displays artifacts from throughout the town's history. Moreover, the mirror maze "Alhambra" is a highlight for every person.
