ARCHITECTUAL STYLE
The house was actually built twice. The original farmhouse building - called Veidler - was erected between 1533 and 1536. Over 500 years later a “rescue campaign” was needed to safe the structure. In 2012 the house was rebuild for a second time using a local technic. It is a log house with squared timbers and simple saddle notches using the original house’s timber above a new, masoned basement floor.
