VISIT THE MUSEUM VIRTUALLY

From now on you can visit the Schweizer Strahlermuseum also virtually!!! A visit is worthwhile in any case. You can move around the museum as if you were there for real. In addition, you can watch videos during your visit (in German), where you can get a lot of information, just like a real guided tour. The entrance fee is only 4 francs. Enclosed you will find the link:

Not only interesting for crystal and crystal seekers and especially the newly created possibility to visit the museum virtually. I also liked the film very much in which we are taken into the mountain and can experience there on the spot how such a gap is found and opened. This is a great opportunity for people who are no longer able to walk in the mountains.
