Blatten knew his second primary assembly after the landslide on May 28, which buried the village. The president of the commune Matthias Bellwald took the opportunity to take stock of the file.
(Keystone-ATS) The drama that touched Blatten razed three hotels and, de facto, reduced by 50% the capacity in this area of the entire Lötschental. The authorities of the communes of the valley want to create a provisional 3-star hotel of 45 to 60 beds, according to information from the RTS confirmed in Keystone-ATS.
The establishment would be born in the town of Wiler. “The question of financing is being discussed. We will know in 15 days, if the project can materialize for Christmas, ”sums up Matthias Fleischmann, the director of the tourist office and the lifts of the Lötschental.
In addition, the municipal authorities want to create public utility housing in the Lötschental, for October 2026 so that the inhabitants who lost everything can stay there.
