Located in the heart of Switzerland, the picturesque
village of Brienz is the home of the wood carvers.
Founded in 1920, Lötscher Ltd. is the only genuine Swiss
brand of cuckoo clocks in existence today. Lötscher
operates two facilities in different parts of Switzerland
which have specific duties in the manufacturing of the
finished clocks. All of the initial steps involved in
building the clocks are done in the woodworking facility in
Brienz. All of the clocks are handmade, hand carved and
hand assembled using aged linden wood.
The making of these clocks is really an art form and the
intricate details visible on most of the clocks are
remarkable.
Yet even with all the details, one is amazed to realize how
sturdy and well built these gems actually are.
The charming little chalet is truly a bit of Switzerland,
calling to mind the sound of tinkling bells, melodious
Alphorns and even Grandma’s cosy kitchen, where the cuckoo
on the wall sang forth the hours and captured nostalgic
moments forever.
