The Mountain Village Davos Wiesen

The village and it's highlights

The idyllic ‘walser’ village is located on a natural sun terrace (1450m elevation) between the two holiday metropoles Davos and Lenzerheide. In the village itsself you can find a church, a sports store and also a little shop (‘Volg’) for some small, daily-life purchases.

Wiesen is famous for a very mild, dry climate. The annual precipitation here is only about two thirds of the precipitation in Zürich. The combination of low precipitation and lots of sunshine results in a relatively low humidity.

The Wiesner Alp

A ‘Maiensäss’ with breathtaking panoramic views and many well-preserved, sunburnt wooden stables and barges, which have been partially converted into weekend cottages. The highlight of the summer is the “Wiesner Alpfest” in July.

The Church

The village church is a Late Gothic design from the 15th century, renovated in 1985 and equipped with a beautiful rococo organ from 1774. Definitely worth a visit!

The village museum

The village museum shows how farmers lived in the 19th century. In addition to a kitchen, living room and a bedroom there is also a sewing room and a weaving room open for visitation. During the summer, special exhibitions are on display.
