EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a unique historical moment in Switzerland - an open air dormitory near Arosa, where children slept in covered shelters without windows during the winter months. This unconventional approach to sleeping arrangements was believed to improve both health and efficiency at school, particularly for those suffering from tuberculosis.
The scene is stark and spartan, with rows of simple covered shelters set against a backdrop of snow-covered mountains. The children appear bundled up against the cold, their breath visible in the crisp winter air. Despite the uncomfortable conditions, this alternative therapy was seen as a form of medical treatment that could help combat the spread of disease and promote overall well-being.
The Germanic influence is evident in this snapshot of Swiss history from the 1930s, showcasing a time when fresh air and open spaces were considered essential for good health. It's fascinating to see how different cultures approached healthcare and education during this era, with innovative solutions like this open air dormitory being implemented to address issues such as consumption (tuberculosis).
Overall, this image serves as a reminder of the importance of thinking outside the box when it comes to healthcare practices and highlights how historical photographs can offer valuable insights into past approaches to medicine and wellness.
