The special exhibition “Excellent! The Golden Star of Thun” explores the history of seals and coats of arms in Thun.

To mark the 550th anniversary of the Battle of Murten, the special exhibition “Distinguished! The Golden Star of Thun” explores the history of seals and coats of arms in Thun. The focus is on the coat of arms revision of 1476, during which the black star was replaced with a golden one as a sign of recognition. The exhibition showcases the fascinating history of distinction, identity, and tradition—from the Middle Ages to the present day. Discover original artifacts, learn more about the coat of arms revision, and experience Thun’s vibrant cultural heritage as you follow in the footsteps of the Fulehungs’ history.
