Gelbes Haus, Traditional farmhouse in Flims, Switzerland.
Gelbes Haus is a traditional farmhouse in Flims, in the Swiss canton of Graubünden, recognized by its bright yellow exterior walls. It has solid wooden structures and stone foundations that are typical of mountain farm buildings in this part of the Alps.
The farmhouse was built to meet the agricultural needs of the mountain community of Flims and shaped village life over many generations. It stands as one of the buildings that reflect the close relationship between mountain farmers and their land in Graubünden.
The building takes its name from the yellow facade that makes it easy to spot in the village. Today it serves as a meeting point for local events and craft workshops where visitors can take part directly.
The house is on Via Nova in Flims and is easy to reach on foot from the village center. On weekends and during peak season, it is worth arriving early as nearby parking is limited.
Although it is an old farm building, it now hosts workshops where visitors can try out traditional crafts and techniques from the mountain region with their own hands. This shift from working farm to learning space has left the original fabric of the building fully intact.
