Old Towns. A world of their own

Until Sun, 28/03/2027
Swiss Heritage Center

Narrow winding streets, picturesque façades and rich layers of heritage: old town centres are symbols of cultural identity and magnets for tourism. They invite residents and visitors alike to stroll, dine, shop and enjoy the nightlife surrounded by history. And they provide living space and a sense of community for people from all walks of life.

Join us on a walk through the old town. Explore the old town centres and their stories in nine alleyways and squares. You meet people who live, work or research in historic city centres. Take a look behind the facades and discover diverse visions and exemplary projects for this distinctive urban environment.
