For our two-day trip around the Winterthur and Zurich regions, we left our car at home and headed off on an adventure via public transport. After an informative and engaging museum visit, we strolled along the Marktgasse to Restaurant Sporrer, before heading to bed at Hostel Depot , satisfied after a day full of new experiences. In the morning, we woke up feeling refreshed and ready to hop on the S-Bahn towards Zurich, where MyClimate Audio Adventure helped us learn all about the city and how to protect the climate in a fun way.
Before we enjoyed a tour of the mill, we ground some flour ourselves and used it to make our own bread β a golden brown, delicious-smelling treat and the perfect end to a fun-packed weekend! The perfect outfit for a weekend in the city and countryside was provided to us by Tchibo Switzerland AG. After our trek, we were ready for some refreshments at Kafi Rauke in Winterthur. The tasty snacks and delicious lunch menu ensured we enjoyed a moment of shared happiness.
Once we had refuelled, we set off on our next adventure: the Gewerbemuseum in central Winterthur. After strolling along the Marktgasse, we took the bus towards the outskirts of the city to Restaurant Sporrer, where the friendly staff immediately showed us that families are welcome here. We enjoyed beautifully presented seasonal dishes in a cosy atmosphere before heading back to our hostel.
The historic building has been renovated and now offers spacious, well-equipped rooms, a kitchen and a welcoming common room β the perfect family accommodation for our weekend stay.
The old mill has been transformed into a museum. While we admired the mill technology, our children had the chance to grind grain into flour and use it to make their own bread. As a final highlight, they loved sliding down the wooden slide on flour sacks.
