Most well known for its international role of hosting the World Economic Forum, Davos is also a ski destination and a retreat in the mountains. The rich come for holiday by helicopter, athletes use its slopes as training grounds for skiing, snowboarding, and bobsledding. It also has three museums, of which two are open half the time.
There’s the Heimat Museum outlining life in Graubünden and the Wintersport Museum on, well, Wintersport. However, they are closed either 5 days a week or only open for 4 days a week on afternoons. The only museum with normal opening hours is the Kirchner Museum with an excellent digitalisation program for the sketchbooks of Ernst Kirchner.

While it’s impossible to get in during WEF, it’s severely overrated for the rest of the year.
