The guide book describes Ballenberg as a kind of Disneyland-like rural Switzerland of yore. I would compare it to a REALLY big "Old World Wisconsin", except Switzerland of course! The grounds cover 80-hectare and have about 100 authentic century-old buildings. We saw maybe a 1/4 of the park. We'll head back there someday to finish it off. The kids enjoyed it and we got to see a man making bread in the shape of a hedgehog!
We spent a few hours there and Ben did great hanging out in the back-pack. We took lots of pictures so you'll have to check them out on our Flickr Photo album. I just think it's great how much history our kids are taking in and being patient with mom and dad dragging them all over!

Great pics! Fun to see all the fun things you're seeing! Jen you're my hero with driving and all!!
I looked through your beautiful pictures. Would you believe I sat in front of that covered bridge and painted it when I was in high school. I carried that picture from house to house until just recently throwing it out. Frau S
