About

The Kulturmuseum Bern is a vibrant and unconventional cultural space located at Schützenweg 22 in Bern, Switzerland.

With two main venues—including the historic Rieghaus and the urban Sous Soul space—it hosts exhibitions, performances, and events that explore contemporary issues through art, design, and social commentary. The museum’s programming is rooted in openness and surprise, often featuring works by emerging artists and collectives. It invites visitors to rethink culture in ever-changing contexts, making it a dynamic meeting point for creatives, thinkers, and the public.
