Schweizerhaus, Beer garden and cultural heritage monument in Trechtingshausen, Germany.
The Schweizerhaus stands on a rock plateau 130 meters above the Rhine River, offering views of Assmannshausen and Binger Loch through its location.
Prince Friedrich Wilhelm Ludwig of Prussia commissioned Swiss workers to construct the timber-framed building between 1842 and 1844 on the former Faitsberger estate.
The architectural style represents the Rheinromantik period, when Swiss mountain landscapes served as an inspiration for buildings along the Middle Rhine Valley.
Visitors must walk to reach this establishment, which now operates as a beer garden offering drinks while maintaining its status as a cultural monument.
A serpentine path with observation towers connects this elevated structure to Burg Rheinstein, integrating it into the medieval castle complex.
