Weather & FacilitiesA visit to a museum or an exhibition is not just something to do when the weather is bad. The region Flims has numerous offers for culture enthusiasts and the inquisitive.
The Yellow House is white. However, that’s not the only surprise in store. Inside the house too nothing reminds today’s visitor of its former use as a greengrocers’ and home. Outside you will notice that the plaster has been completely knocked off. Inside the wilful arrangement of beams and pillars create a proper work of art. The award-winning building houses exhibitions of all kinds.
The 19th-century building is perfect for presenting over 2,200 cultural assets from Laax. A film on the development of Laax compliments the folkloristic collection.
A visit to the Casa Carniec takes you back to the 16th century. Experience every day life in the Surselva as it used to be. True treasures are waiting on you.
The Waldhaus Flims, Mountain Resort & Spa offers three museums in one spot.
In the hotel museum, the biggest in Switzerland, you can travel back in time to the "Belle Époque", perhaps even as a guest at a museum dinner.
The crystal collection awaits you with sparkling treasures from the region, all of Switzerland and from overseas.
And in the rooms designed by Rudolf Olgiati you can admire some of his cultural asset collection.
