Hello,!
I have an old wooden holiday house and want to tear down a wall!
How do I tell from the blueprint if it is load-bearing?
 
Depends on which drawings you have, but upload them here and you can get help. K-drawings are the ones of interest.
Otherwise, you should be cautious if the wall is close to the middle of the house in the same direction as the roof ridge.
If any wall is thicker or made of a different material.
If walls on different floors are "stacked on top of each other".
The walls can also be stabilizing, so just because a wall isn't load-bearing doesn't mean it's safe to remove it without taking measures.

But tell us or upload pictures of the cottage, and one can make a more qualified guess.
 
Sending drawing image and exterior image of the house!
 
  • Blueprint of a house depicting floor plan and elevation views, placed on a dark surface with red LED lights visible.
  • Exterior view of a gray wooden house with three windows and a white air conditioning unit mounted outside.

It looks like trusses, and then no interior walls should be load-bearing.
 
No, it doesn't look like anything unusual, which wall do you want to remove?
