ZEUGHAUS TEUFEN
Recognized as one of the most beautiful museums in Switzerland by Patrimoine Suisse, the Zeughaus Teufen puts on three to four exhibitions a year.
Opened in September 2012, the Zeughaus Teufen houses the Grubenmann collection on the top floor. The middle floor offers spacious and atmospheric rooms that allow for concise temporary exhibitions.
The museum sees itself as a forum for contemporary and applied art, complemented by themes relating to building culture and regional appeal. The exhibitions are characterized by site-specific work. This is accompanied by a rich supporting program.
On the first floor, the Zeughaus also houses the large Zeughaussaal. This is managed by the owner, the municipality of Teufen, and can be rented for a wide variety of uses. The museum is thus recommended as a place for cultural networking. In this sense, it is a multidisciplinary establishment that caters to a wide range of visitor interests and constantly offers new perspectives on the seemingly familiar.
Lieux de Minorités – Florian Bachmann
Vernissage: November 1, 2025, Zeughaus Teufen
With his long-term project “Lieux de Mémoire”, photographer Florian Bachmann follows the landscape of forgetting: he has been visiting and photographing unusual places of remembrance in Switzerland for years. As part of the project “A Future for whose Past? The Heritage of Minorities, Fringe Groups and People without a Lobby”, the Zeughaus Teufen is now curating Florian Bachmann’s photographs under the title ‘Lieux de Minorités’ under the gaze of minorities: inconspicuous visualizations of a sometimes overgrown, sometimes wiped away or built over trace of events.
