One of the most beautiful houses in Wimmenau is the Swiss Scherer house, built by Bernese who came to repopulate Alsace after the Thirty Years' War (1618-48). Built in the Renaissance style of the Bernese Oberland in 1669, it was transformed in 1718 and 1800. The Association for the Protection of the Heritage maintains it for 20 years and collects the objects of the rural life of the Northern Vosges. The house has been restored strictly respecting archaeological discoveries.
