Bregenzerwälder Käsekeller cheese cellar

This monolithic structure made of exposed concrete is an imposing addition to the landscape. The design dates back to a 2002 architecture competition won by Oskar Leo Kaufmann, who drafted a building dedicated to regional mountain cheese that would represent the heart of the “KäseStrasse” cheese route. As part of Kaufmann’s playful concept, the concrete facade was drilled with holes to lend it the appearance of a large cheese. Inside the building, a glass panel overlooking the production room provides a transparent look at the ripening process.

The foyer also contains a sales room stocking regional delicacies.

Architecture: Oskar Leo Kaufmann, 2003

Outlet selling regional specialities in the foyer.
