From a farming village to a city of technology: The Grenchen Museum of Culture and History tells the story of industrialization and its consequences, using the city and region of Grenchen as an example. The focus is on the lives and work of people in industry and the impact of industrialization on their daily lives. The museum opened in 1999 in the former Rain School building on Absyte. Following a renovation and redesign in 2019, the museum is now a modern educational platform for the history of the Grenchen region and a meeting place for young and old alike. A museum for children and families: The mascot “Tick-Tack” invites children to explore the exhibits in a playful way (hands-on stations, games, dress-up, crafts, etc.). Bring your school lessons to the museum! We offer set modules for elementary and secondary school students.
