In a small mountain village in Switzerland, the tallest building of a 3D printer was opened on Tuesday.
The 30 -meter “White Tower” of Mulegns was made in Eth Zurich and is intended to commemorate the emigration history of the Graubünden Sugar Bakers. This also consisted of artisans from the canton of Graubünden in Switzerland as a Engadine Zuckerbäcker group, who worked throughout Europe from the 15th century.
Because of the economic emergency situations in their home country, many young men emigrated abroad, especially to Venice, where they settled as a sugar baker. In the 18th century they operated most pastry bakers. According to their designation from Venice in 1766, they spread their art in numerous European cities and considerably formed the Coffee House culture.
The white columns of the 3D tower are reminiscent of a cake. A staircase leads to the ever -clear dome, including artistic versions will soon be shown.
The project was delayed and more money devoured than planned
40 people have been working on the project since 2018. The construction was characterized by countless delays and extra costs. The tower originally opened two years ago. Moreover, the project finally cost CHF 4.4 million (around 4.7 million euros) – more than twice as in the beginning.
