The present invention belongs to the field of construction, more precisely to the field of prefabricated walls. The load-bearing prefabricated double-skin façade timber wall element comprises a timber frame and two transparent glass surfaces separated by an air cavity. The inner thermal-insulating glass unit (IGU) is bonded to the timber frame with the stiff polyurethane adhesive, while the outer laminated fully-tempered glass unit is connected to the timber frame with weather-resistant silicone adhesive. A cover strip is placed from the inner side over the timber frame in order to ensure correct and precise application of the polyurethane adhesive for gluing the inner insulating glass unit, while a soft plastic spacer is installed between the timber frame and the single-layer outer glazing in order to ensure precise installation of the weather-resistant silicone adhesive. The thermal-insulating three-layer glazing on the inside of the timber frame is attached frontally to the timber frame with the polyurethane adhesive.
