The former schoolhouse was the center for education and community and is to be a musical meeting place in the future.

Description

Before 1994

The schoolhouse as the centre: Originally, the building served as a schoolhouse for the community. It was a place of education and gathering.

1993

The birth of "la tomata": In 1993, a striking change came to Tschlin – the construction of "la tomata", a striking, red multi-purpose building next to the former schoolhouse. This versatile building quickly became a cultural centerpiece, especially for musical activities. The outstanding acoustics made it the ideal stage for musical performances. For 150 years, Tschlin has consisted of a village music society with about 25 musicians, a singing club of a recently founded band called "Ein Prosit" of about 20 young people who perform Bohemian music. Particularly well-known are the musical Erni family, who still make music today, and the "Fränzlis da Tschlin".

The history of the "Fränzlis da Tschlin" deserves special mention. The name comes from the 19th century by Franz Josef Waser from Chaflur, who was very musical himself. The journalist Men Steiner from Scuol wanted to make a film about Franz Josef, together with the Janetts from Tschlin. This collaboration resulted in the band of the "Fränzlis da Tschlin", which made Tschlin famous throughout Switzerland through its mixture of different musical styles and still performs today with descendants from the families of origin.

Around the 2010s

Chinese influences: Around the 2010s, Tschlin came into contact with unusual cultural influences. An adventurer from Scuol brought two monks from China to Tschlin. Together they performed exercises such as Tai Chi, Chi Gong, Kung Fu and other Far Eastern practices. The catering was also inspired by Chinese. Unfortunately, this project met with little interest and the monks left Tschlin after two years.

Present and future: The Chasa Tschlin as a musical meeting place

In the recent past, Chasa Tschlin has developed into an important centre. The house is currently rented out by Engadin Booking as group accommodation. However, an exciting change is emerging. In the future, the Chasa Tschlin will not only become a place for overnight stays, but also a meeting place for musicians in the village. It is also planned that music societies will be able to reside here for camps and benefit from the infrastructure and the inspiring environment.

In addition, there is a culinary enrichment with the Ustaria Tschlin. A dedicated restaurateur has opened a restaurant in Chasa Tschlin. This restaurant is not only a culinary hotspot, but also another attraction for musicians and visitors to the village. The future of Chasa Tschlin thus promises a harmonious combination of music, hospitality and culinary delights. This underlines the intention of the Chasa Tschlin to position itself as a flourishing music village.
