Intro

The Saint-Germain castle, located in the heart of the medieval site of Gruyères, houses one of the strangest museums in the world.

The Château Saint-Germain, located in the heart of the medieval site of Gruyères, houses one of the strangest museums in the world. The exhibition, dedicated to the works of Swiss artist Hans Ruedi Giger (born 1940), plunges visitors into a science fiction universe that is both surprising and disturbing. A large room houses the artist's private collection. Known for his futuristic creatures, the Graubünden artist and illustrator became famous by participating in the making of the film "Alien", for which he created the monster and which won him an Oscar in Hollywood in 1980.
