Events in St. Gallen - City events

Art Nouveau is the name given to a short cultural-historical epoch of style development and search for reform around and after 1900: the rebellion of youth against the old.

Vernissage 22. Mai 2026, 18.30 Uhr Diese Kabinett-Ausstellung widmet sich dem Werk des St.Galler Künstlers Arthur Beyer (1904–1982), der zeitlebens als Maler und Grafiker tätig war.

The newly designed permanent exhibition opens windows into the lives of the Indians and Inuit.

Cityscapes tell urban history.

Was lebt, hinterlässt Spuren. Die Welt ist voll davon: Trittspuren im Schnee, abgenagte Tannenzapfen, Knochen, Nester oder Gerüche bezeugen, dass da jemand war. Doch was sagt die Spur aus?
