Kehrli-Suite
Johann Kehrli (1774-1854)
Johann Kehrli single-handedly created a footpath from the lake shore to the second-lowest cascade, and also set up a bench. The architectural development of Giessbach is all thanks to Kehrli: after the bench came a rest home (1822), followed by an inn, and finally the Grandhotel Giessbach.
