Intro
Designed by Adolphe Tièche, the Grand Hotel Thunerhof was opened in 1875 as Thun’s largest hotel. Used as a hotel until 1948, this historic building is now home to the art museum, a café and part of the Thun city administration.
The Thunerhof is a substantial hotel building with clear lines in the French Neo-Renaissance form with a dominant tower. The stair hall is also well worth seeing, with its galleries and the light well in the interior of the building. The art museum is housed in the former dining room and renowned contemporary art exhibitions held here have attracted international attention. The patio, decorated with a rose trellis, serves as a summer terrace for the Thunerhof café and its location by the River Aare makes it the perfect setting for aperitifs on that special occasion.
