The historic Suste, built around 1680 at the time of the "Port" in the Free State of the Three Leagues, houses a collection of artefacts from the cultural heritage of the Walser people in the Rhine Forest.

The unique, cultural-historical exhibits give visitors an insight into the historical everyday life of the old Walser people. They include passenger transport over the Rheinwald passes in the days of stagecoaches and sledges, domestic life, traditional dairy farming, woodworking, the Buuchi and much more.
