Every year from the beginning of June, special boxes are placed on twelve reading benches. They contain books of various genres, for all ages and in different languages. If you want to take a break while walking, you can enjoy a good book. The idea was initiated by Davos Klosters Tourism and the Graubünden and Davos libraries and the Klosters-Serneus municipal library.

The quarterly "Davoser Revue" - founded in 1925 by Jules Ferdmann - has been recording and interpreting the cultural history and life of the Davos mountain community for over 90 years and has now become a part of Davos culture itself. The "Davoser Revue" distinguishes itself through its local ties and cosmopolitanism at the same time. Its themed issues have local and regional significance and are also of general human relevance.
