Visible from the street; the inside is private.

Built in 1906 in Bottmingen, in the canton of Basel-Landschaft, the Hämisgarten School house exemplifies the Heimatstil architectural movement, which sought to root modern design in regional vernacular traditions. Designated a class B Swiss cultural property of regional significance, the structure represents an important educational building from the early twentieth century that blends contemporary schoolhouse planning with the aesthetics of local building heritage.
