      The Stapferhaus and its exhibitions aim to be a place of dialogue and interaction. It looks back on 60 years of rich history and was awarded with the "European Museum of the Year Award" in 2020. It focusses on the big questions of the present times: what shapes our lives, what occupies the country, what moves the world? In exhibition worlds that can be experienced by the senses, it invites visitors to critically examine the challenges of our time in an entertaining way. Its main exhibition usually performs for about one year and aims to explore in depth one present-day issue, always with an interest in the other, the unfamiliar, the surprising. The Stapferhaus also provides an excellent infrastructure for external events. It has various rooms available for workshops, meetings or trainings. An outstanding in-house bistro or our external caterers take care of the physical well-being, from coffee breaks to aperitifs, also for larger events. Show less
