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.

We‘ve visited this tiny little museum for the special exhibition Global happiness designed by the Swiss development aid agency HELVETAS. Just gorgeous! The coffeeshop of the Naturama offers some affordable refreshments.
