Guided tour of the village through the historic houses of Bönigen. Learn lots of interesting facts about the old buildings and customs of Bönigen from the 16th - 18th centuries.

Bönigen has an old part of the village of national importance. Wooden houses from the 16th to 19th centuries characterize the village center, which fortunately has never been destroyed by a major fire. Numerous buildings from every construction period since 1549 have been preserved here in a small area. Wood was a suitable material for building houses for the people of Bönig from early on. At first, the houses were functional buildings, but from the 16th century onwards, the urge for artistic design awoke. The historic village center with its carved wooden houses from the 16th - 18th centuries is proof of this.
