International Museum Day has been celebrated worldwide in May every year since 1978. On this special day, museums focus on their diversity and importance. This year’s theme: “The Future of Museums in Rapidly Changing Communities”

At Ballenberg, we are taking a stand for nature. Under the annual theme “Biodiversity – Ballenberg in Bloom!”, we invite you to take an active role: enhance a meadow as a habitat for insects together with Verterra or take a captivating short tour. With your help, we promote biodiversity and create a valuable food source for insects.

Get inspired on how you can promote biodiversity at home! Verterra’s team of experts is available throughout the day with valuable tips and practical instructions. The planting campaign will take place at Neuchâtel skittles (152).

At the house from Sachseln (711) and the farmhouse from Tentlingen (511), storytellers take you on a journey into the fantasy worlds and linguistic cultures of Switzerland.

And in dwelling from Matten (1021), representatives of IG Hanfkalk explain interesting facts about the sustainable building material hemp lime.
