Workshop Töpfern

Ceramics have been around for over 25,000 years. This craft was practised in many monasteries. Pottery remains popular and continues to fascinate many people, including us! We are happy to pass on our knowledge. We, the ceramists, live and breathe this craft with love and passion. All our designs and production are 100% Swiss.

Immerse yourself in the world of ceramics with us. We will teach you the technique of free throwing on an electric potter's wheel. You will learn the essential techniques to throw your own cup, bowl or small plate at the Töpferei-Klause pottery studio during this workshop. Or would you prefer to model? Here, too, we will give you tips on how to create your own piece.
