The Affoltern show dairy is located in the centre of the Emmen valley, approximately 11 km east of Burgdorf. It is a beautiful area between the Alpine foothills and the Jura Mountains. Visitors learn how genuine Emmentaler cheese is made, how it is matured and, intriguingly, how the characteristic holes are formed and their purpose. Emmentaler cheese has been made since the 13th century and the authentic product is stamped with the mark of Emmentaler AOC and the reference number of the dairy. When booking, you can arrange to make your own cheese over an open fire. There is a restaurant and a shop.
