Switzerland Postcard: Weissenburg i Simmental Hotel Restaurant Alte Post XT5137

This striking black and white aerial view captures the idyllic Alpine landscape surrounding the historic Hotel-Restaurant Alte Post in Weissenburg i. Simmental, Switzerland. The large, traditional multi-storey Swiss chalet-style building stands alongside a sharp curve in the mountain road where a classic vintage saloon car is parked. The Simme river flows forcefully through the valley floor, crossed nearby by a beautiful, traditional rustic timber covered bridge. The composition perfectly documents mid-century continental travel, classic Swiss vernacular architecture, and Alpine transport topography.

This is a continental size postcard with a deckled edge which was published by Service aérien Perrochet, Lausanne (Series BE 2151). The text details the proprietor as O. Matter, Küchenchef. The postcard was made in Switzerland. This is an unused postcard.
