A saffron of special quality thrives in the mouth. Analyzes have shown that the taste is four times more intense than that of imported saffron. The village houses a small saffron museum in the Zentenstadel (one of the oldest wooden buildings in Switzerland) in which the history of saffron cultivation in Mund is told.

One of the few places in Switzerland where saffron is grown. Nice to see on the steep slopes.
