Beschreibung

On the Lukmanier route to Italy in the Swiss Alps, in the village of Flims, stands the 17th century Schlössli, the former residence of the wealthy and influential Johann Gaudenz von Capol (16411723). With its stucco work by artists from Valle Mesolcina and Southern Germany, stoves from Winterthur and the Lake Constance region, a panelled parlour possibly by a southern German master, and a panel from Eger, the building unites prevailing influences from allover Europe. The architectural monument is an excellent example of how open and internationally oriented the inhabitants were even1883, first to Berlin and later to the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, where it is still located and called Swiss Room, as wellas the conversion of the residential house into the town hall of Flims also exemplifies a chapter of Swiss art and cultural history.
