The "Verein zur Förderung des Ballenbergs" (VFB) (The Association of Ballenberg Open-Air Museum Patrons) has some 2,800 members from German-speaking Switzerland and Ticino – all part of the big family of enthusiastic Ballenberg supporters.
Since the VFB’s establishment in 1974, it has contributed more than 6.6 million Swiss francs, which has been used to finance a large number of buildings and other projects that would not otherwise have been possible.

Every two years, the VFB organises an event for its members in various regions of the country.
