Zermatt is one of the best-known resorts in
Switzerland. The village, situated in the shadow of the legendary Matterhorn,
offers a true spirit mountain village filled with charming chalets.
Matterhorn was one of the last alpine mountains to be
conquered in 1865. The conquest of the Matterhorn brought the fame to the
village of Zermatt.
The most picturesque part of Zermatt is Hinterdorf, the oldest
part of the village, with barns, stables and storage barns built between the 15th and 19th century.
