Degen Restaurant (19th c.)

Degen Inn dates from 1891 and comes from Hünenberg (Zug), but the building is probably older. Dendrochronological analysis shows that the timber was cut between 1837 and 1842, and according to oral tradition the inn comes from the canton of Lucerne, replacing a Degen pub which had burnt down a few years earlier. At that time, dismantling, transporting and reassembling cost less than building a new one, and sometimes a building was moved to a new location.
