Special exhibition at Waldegg Castle
Between 1600 and 1700, castle construction was in a state of upheaval: numerous castles were rebuilt, extended or modernized in the area that is now Switzerland. These buildings are cultural monuments of the highest order. They bear witness both to the need for representation of the elite of the time and to their desire for a comfortable lifestyle. As such, they represent issues that are still relevant today.

The exhibition at Waldegg Castle opens up a broad view of 17th century Swiss castles: architecture, garden art and arts and crafts are examined, as are the living environments of the castle's inhabitants.

The exhibition was created in collaboration between the Waldegg Castle Foundation and the University of Lausanne. As part of a research seminar led by Professor Dave Lüthi, a group of art history students explored the topic of "Swiss castles in the 17th century". Their research findings and suggestions for the selection of exhibits form the basis of the exhibition.

Accompanying program for children and families:
Master builder wanted! - Family tour through the special exhibition

On the family tour, young guests slip into the role of a master builder and are given the task of designing a castle. Equipped with a builder's belt, tools and a notebook, they get to work themselves and set off in search of information on how castles were built and furnished in the 17th century.

The family trail is available free of charge at the ticket office. For children aged 6 and over
