Markthalle Altenrhein

Markthalle Hundertwasser Altenrhein, Staad SG

Hundertwasser architecture project - Unique in Switzerland

Gilded onion domes, bright colors, curved lines, uneven windows, uneven floors, colorful ceramic columns, shady walkways and green roofs are the characteristics of Friedensreich Hundertwasser's architecture. He wanted to eliminate all uniformity, sterility and anonymity in his architecture. His dream and goal was to create a humane environment for the individual and at the same time to restore nature to its rightful place.
Like many other famous buildings in Europe and Japan, the building in Altenrhein is an impressive example of the internationally renowned artist's unusual architectural concepts.

Guided tours and events are possible at any time, even outside opening hours. One or more guided tours at the same time
last approximately 1 hour. In addition to the popular children's tours and the lively adult tours, "cleaning ladies' tours" are also offered: Gossip by and about Friedensreich Hundertwasser and about the construction of the Markthalle. Let us surprise you!
