Old Country Kitchen

Three medieval houses were combined in 1893 by the architects Alfred Chiodera (1850-1916) and Theophil Tschudy (1847-1911) and equipped with today's eye-catching dining room.
The double arch, clad in majolica, at the entrance front of the pavilion comes from the ceramic company Bodmer & Beavers. Chiodera & Tschudy had built (after seeing it) at the Swiss national exhibition of 1883 in Zurich.
