Haus der Schwalbe
The Haus der Schwalbe is a lovingly renovated, listed historic building in the heart of Oberhofen am Thunersee. During the renovation, original patterns and materials were uncovered and carefully integrated into the new room concept - tradition meets contemporary lightness. Spacious, bright rooms combine old building fabric with modern comfort. Historic elements such as wooden beams and decorative details create a unique living and working ambience. The house is located in the immediate vicinity of the castle, lake, museum and jetty - an ideal place for people with a sense of aesthetics, culture and tranquillity.
Oberhofen on Lake Thun uniquely combines Alpine serenity with Mediterranean flair. Located directly on the sunny northern shore of Lake Thun, the village is like the Riviera of Switzerland - with its mild climate, palm-lined lakeside paths and the magnificent backdrop of the lake and the Alps. The village captivates with its historic charm, manicured gardens, stylish villas and the iconic Oberhofen Castle, whose Thun juts directly into the lake. Small cafés, a peaceful jetty, the lakeside spa, museums and walks through the Schoßpark make Oberhofen a place to slow down and find inspiration. Culture, nature and quality of life merge here - an ideal place to live, work, vacation or simply arrive.
The Haus der Schwalbe is centrally located in the historic center of Oberhofen, just 50m from the landing stage. In the immediate vicinity are: Oberhofen Castle with its park, the clock museum, the lakeside resort and the bus stop for Thun, a 5-minute walk. A walk through the castle park and the surrounding historic houses invites you to linger, perfect for walks, those interested in culture or tourists.
