The Glasi Hergiswil is a Swiss glass factory in Nidwalden, Switzerland, founded by the Siegwart brothers in 1817. The factory was once threatened with closure due to aging machines and technology but remained open through the efforts of the local community. It now also operates as a visitor attraction, allowing guests to observe glassworkers at their craft, and includes a museum and the first glass labyrinth in Switzerland.
