Ballenberg
Bernese Midlands craftman´s house (18th c.) and drugstore (19th c.)

This house of a stocking manufacturer, built in Herzogenbuchsee in 1778, marks the beginning of a new era. Traditionally, agriculture, home work and weaving were combined on the farm. Here, dwelling and workshops are still under the same roof, but agricultural activities are excluded. On its right, you see the "Stöckli" of the drugstore.
