Allgäu Emmental (or Allgäuer Emmentaler) is also referred to as Bavarian Swiss Cheese. One of the most famous German cheeses, it is not originally from Allgäu, but from the region of Emmental located in the Swiss canton of Bern, where it was crafted since the 1700’s. In 1821, the “Swiss method” was brought to the Allgäu for the first time by Josef Aurel Stadler.
