Villa Sonnenberg
The 250-year-old Villa Sonnenberg was once the country estate, family home, restaurant and residence of the composer Peter Mieg. It was modernised in 1914 and has recently been completely renovated. During this process, several treasures at the house were revealed ...
The Gardens and Natural Springs
The garden is enigmatic and dreamy. Designed around 1900, it was created in the style of a country garden. Take a stroll and discover various scenes and settings, just like in a film. The most treasured feature is the spring water that flows from the depths of the Goffersberg.

Art Book
Over the course of four years, Villa Sonnenberg was slowly awakened from its slumber and extensively renovated. Photographer and artist Anja Karolina Furrer went in search of impressions with her camera long before excavators and cranes dominated the site. The result is a book full of visual poetry that includes a contribution by Christoph Moser on the history of the residents of Sonnenberg.
