Ital Reding Hofstatt and Bethlehem

The monumental building Ital Reding Hofstatt in Schwyz was built in 1636 by Ital Reding (1573-1651).

The huge mansions in Schwyz date from this period. The Reding Hofstatt family  also built the House of Bethlehem in 1287.

Both buildings are maintained by a foundation and are open to the public.
