Project description:
Our volunteer projects offer the unique opportunity to actively participate in the renovation of traditional cultural assets. In regions such as the idyllic Val Müstair/Engadin, the picturesque Untergrenchenberg and soon also in St. Maurice, participants can learn and preserve the ancient craft of dry stone wall building.
​
What can you expect?

​
Aims of the project
Committed people of all ages are invited to support the preservation and maintenance of cultural assets in Val Müstair and on the Untergrenchenberg. The focus is on the importance of traditional craftsmanship and strengthening the sense of community by working together in nature.
