Oh My!!! I saw the photo and thought it was Black Hawk, Colorado! It looks just like a gold mine in Black Hawk (the way it looked back in the 80s). Beautiful Photo.
Before I even saw that this was in Switzerland, I knew immediately that it was from just the photo….and I’ve never been to Switzerland! Great building of wood.
Amazing buildings and a lovely photo, but I’m not sure how I’d feel about being in the ones poised on top of others on those discs on top of pillars. You’d have to remember where you were when you thought about going out of the front door.
I used to live in a house made of wooden shingles and boy do I remember the smell of that house. Much like I would imagine this house smells. Love the photo and actually the house too.
Wow – do you know what time period this is from? It looks like a door up there, complete with a doorstep, with no way to get up there. Crazy hermits or weird fantasy land creatures could live in there. Very cool photo.
I’m not sure how old it was but it’s been there for quite a while! I think there was a ladder to reach the top door, and it does look as though fairy tale creatures would live there… :)
Wonderful wood building.
BE ENCOURAGED! BE BLESSED!

That’s quite impressive you knew it was from Switzerland. It was very well constructed and (I think) still being used!
