Kulturama - Museum of Human Evolution

KULTURAMA Museum des Menschen, Zürich

Kulturama conveys knowledge and science about man in a way that is understandable to all.

The Kulturama Museum of Man was founded over 40 years ago specifically for museum education. It conveys curriculum-relevant knowledge and scientific findings about humans to school classes of all levels and to the general public. Kulturama works in an interdisciplinary way, with people of all ages, and communicates in an understandable way to specific target groups.

The museum consists of five exhibition areas. The exhibition "Where we come from" shows the evolution of life and mankind up to early cultures. The exhibition "Who we are" focuses on the human life course and bodily functions. "How we learn" is dedicated to human learning, memory and learning strategies. In the "Experience Path" hands-on stations are available for active engagement with evolution, prehistory and the human body.

The fifth area consists of an annually changing special exhibition. Here, in-house productions, external exhibitions or co-productions with other museums and institutions are presented.

The Kulturama combines both biological and cultural-historical themes related to man. It offers a wide range of educational programs for all generations, for school classes, families and adults. So far, more than 12,600 museum educational offers have been carried out. In this respect, Kulturama is one of the most active museums in Switzerland.
