Anniversary event "750 years of Walser in the Rhine Forest"

Hinterrhein is considered the oldest documented Walser settlement in Graubünden. According to a document from 1274, a group of Walsers from Pomatt/Val Formazza settled there.
The anniversary has significance for the entire canton, as Hinterrhein is considered to be the oldest Walser settlement on cantonal territory on the basis of the document of 1274 and a second document from 1286 in the municipal archives.
