Monster

Event Riehen

Overview

  • Date

    27. October 2024 - 12. April 2026

Intro

Monsters don't exist, but they lurk everywhere: in books, sagas and legends. In this cellar landscape, you will find out how you can defeat them or even make friends with them.

This statement is at the heart of the special exhibition "Monsters", which examines various monstrous creatures, including well-known figures from the Swiss legendary landscape such as the Basel Basilisk. The exhibition shows why our own imagination creates terrifying creatures, why fear can be useful and how we can deal with it. Last but not least, it provides valuable tips on how to defeat monsters - or even make friends with them.

An atmospheric foray into the bizarre and enchanted for children aged 5 and over, together in adult companionship.
