Accompanied by the monument preservation, a professionally excellently restored residential house, located in the village center.
"... an extremely picturesque group" so describes Prof. Dr. Albert Knöpfli, already in 1962 this unique property and its neighboring houses (The Art Monuments of Switzerland, Canton Thurgau, Volume III, Page 379, Image and Description).
The former tavern "Zum Schäfli" has a very interesting history: for example, 200 years ago the first veterinarian trained at a university in the Canton of Thurgau lived and worked here and passed on his knowledge in courses to colleagues.
