Open-air museum in Ballenberg

Thursday, April 10, 2025

Traditionally, on the occasion of the opening of the Ballenberg Museum season, the Interprofession of Vine and Wine of Valais will prune the small plot located there and offer a wine and raclette tasting. This year, the La Cinquième Saison winery will present its wines to visitors.

Starting at 10:00, you can witness one of the most important tasks of a winemaker: vine pruning.

From 11:00, enjoy a convivial moment around Valais wines and AOP raclette until 14:00.
