Intro

The Emmental Show Dairy is home to the famous cheese with holes: Emmental AOP.

The Schouchäsi comprises four former cheese dairies from different generations, all of which are open to visitors. It is surrounded by cow pastures and offers plenty to discover and experience. On the Königsweg, the indoor interactive tour for the whole family, you’ll learn more about the production and history of Emmentaler AOP. Or you can experience first-hand how a cheesemaker produces the delicious Stöckli cheese or makes cream cheese in just one hour.

Regional delicacies are served in the cosy Schouchäsi Restaurant. In the specialist cheese shop, you can buy original Emmentaler AOP at various stages of maturity, along with around a hundred other types of cheese and specialities from the Emmental.

On the grounds of the Emmentaler demonstration cheese dairy, you’ll also find a large playground, a sunny self-service terrace, a mini zoo and lovely surroundings for walking and hiking.
