Den Himmel vor Augen Die glanzvolle Zeit der Benediktiner wiederentdecken. Strahlende Monstranzen, funkelnde Kelche, berühmte Stifterschreiben. Die Ausstellung im Museum Kloster Muri wirft einen Blick hinter die einstmals so verschlossenen Klostermauern und erzählt zahlreiche Geschichten aus dem Leben der Äbte und Mönche. Und von den mächtigen Habsburgern, die einst ganz Europa beherrschten.

Surrounded today by gardens, pastures and vineyards, the castle was founded by the Habsburgs in the first half of the 13 century. Along with its domain the castle was owned by eleven generations of the Effinger dynasty. Immerse yourself in an authentic experience of historical gardening culture and comfortable living. Between 1483 and 1912 Wildegg Castle was the seat of the Effinger dynasty. The family was part of the landed gentry and had been admitted to the Bernese patriciate. During this time the castle and its outbuildings were repeatedly adapted to suit the changing requirements. The prestige of the dynasty was illustrated by the spoils of war that Bernhard Effinger brought back in 1683 from fighting the Turks outside Vienna, and by Holderbank Church which contains the family vault. An audio guide introduces selected members of the family and tells their life stories.
We had seen the Schloss signposted so decided we should visit. What a good choice we made. The castle is fully intact with many rooms over numerous floors to visit, each room telling you something of the history of the people who lived there and the castle itself. In various rooms, there were video screens designed to look like oil paintings which came to life, each telling their own little story. Whilst the narrative was in German, these provided sub-titles in English and French. Outside, the gardens are worth visiting. All in all, a great day out.

It is only a short hop from the romantic moated castle to the nature reserve on Lake Hallwil. Combine history, culture and nature to create an exciting experience! Travelling through time and space with the von Hallwyl family.

On your tour of the castle premises you will discover medieval and post medieval areas of life divided into 11 themes. By means of an audio guide, selected family members will tell you the stories of their lives. However, the ordinary people, the farmers and subjects of the Lords of Hallwyl also have a voice.

Founded in 1959, the Aargauer Kunsthaus is one of the leading art museums in Switzerland. It derives its appeal in particular from its exhibition programme, in which contemporary art takes a central place, and from its outstanding permanent collection, arguably the most important public collection of Swiss art from the 18th century to the present. In 2003 the museum building was expanded based on designs by Herzog & de Meuron Architects in collaboration with the artist Rémy Zaugg. Each year the Kunsthaus presents about ten exhibitions, showcasing major national and international artistic approaches. Particular attention is also paid to young artists and to artists from the Argovian region. An innovative, wide-ranging art education programme serves to foster public appreciation, particularly on the part of a younger audience, of the exhibitions and the permanent collection, with the latter regularly being presented in new arrangements.
