Ballenberg
Hofstetten bei Brienz, Canton of Bern135 min from Nyon
Ballenberg is an open-air museum about traditional Swiss buildings and rural life. Families walk between houses, workshops and farm settings, so it feels more like exploring a village than standing inside a classic museum.
Why special: It feels like walking through a living Swiss village rather than looking at objects in cases, with traditional houses and rural settings spread across an open-air site.
