The beautiful old Hochstudhaus with thatched roof houses the village museum of Kölliken.
The museum is currently (2023) closed for maintenance work, but the house is still worth seeing.

More information (source: website of the municipality of Kölliken):
The "Sauzmehus" is a thatched roof house in Aargau. It was built in 1802. The owners, the Suter family, had a cantonal license to sell salt, which is why they were called "s'Sauzmes".

The house is a frame construction with four high floors and was originally made entirely of wood. In 1941 the stable in Stein was renovated. The hipped roof has an area of 900 square meters and was originally thatched. In 1983 and again in 2020, the covering was renewed with 40 tons of reeds.

The house has been owned by the municipality of Kölliken since 1981 and has been a museum since 1987. It shows the way of life of a wealthy farming family in the 19th and early 20th centuries, gives an insight into old handicraft techniques and conveys topics from the history of the village in Köllik.
