House in Sulzberg

Sulzberg is a community east of Bregenz in the Austrian state of Vorarlberg with a population of approximately 1,700 people. At its centre, 1,000 meters up on the mountain peak, one can still find traditional Bregenzerwald houses. These are large timber houses — usually three stories — with low-pitched roofs and shingle-clad facades that are protected from the rain by a projecting ledge at each floor level.
