Waelderhaus, Austrian-style heritage building in Kohler Village, Wisconsin, United States.
The Waelderhaus stands on a high bluff overlooking the Sheboygan River, featuring traditional Bregenzerwald architectural elements with wooden carvings and iron details.
Marie Christine Kohler commissioned this building in 1931 as a tribute to her father Johann Michael Kohler, who emigrated from Schnepfau, Vorarlberg, Austria.
The building serves as a center for community gatherings, hosting the Kohler Distinguished Guest Series performances and exhibitions since 1944.
Visitors can join free guided tours at 2:00, 3:00, and 4:00 PM daily, with advance reservations required for groups larger than ten people.
The exterior wall displays a Nodus Sundial with zodiac symbols that marks time from sunrise until noon through its vertical declining design.
