Art in public in Eastern Switzerland / Liechtenstein

In 2001, when the Canton of Schaffhausen celebrated the 500-year anniversary of its accession to the Confederation, the project Kulturfenster was founded by UBS Schaffhausen in collaboration with the town and canton.

The first public lounge in Switzerland spreads out in the St.Galler Bleichi district in the open air. It is covered in red rubber granulate and is lit by artistic lighting elements. The "city lounge" by artist Pipilotti Rist and architect Carlos Martinez invites you to relax and marvel.

Switzerland’s largest outdoor living room is the Stadtlounge (“City Lounge”), a project that converted the Bleicheli district into a day/night space for play, relaxation and business.
