In five to six large exhibitions per year important international and national trends of contemporary art are shown. Solo exhibition by famous artists like Christian Marclay or Mark Grotjahn, the first large-scale retrospective exhibition of works by the artist sisters Claudia & Julia Müller ort he daring project “Cadeaux diplomatiques” of Gianni Motti and Christoph Büchel made the Kunstmuseum Thun an important place. Next to theme-related exhibitions as “Gesellschaftsbilder / Images of Society” or "Choosing my Religion" the museum focuses on the dialogue between the art of the past and of the present in an annual exhibition of the collection. The collection embraces important minor masters, classical modern Swiss art, a large number of Swiss pop art works, and works by all the renowned artists of the region. It is being constantly extended by works of contemporary Swiss art. Among the artists represented in the collection are: Cuno Amiet, Ferdinand Hodler, Paul Klee, Franz Gertsch, Balthasar Burkhard, Claudia & Julia Müller, Chantal Michel and Shirana Shabhazi.
Project room enter: The project room “enter” is a special platform for young innovative art. The small exhibitions held there offer scope for artistic experimentation and exciting insight into current, not yet fully formulated positions in art.
Art education: The Kunstmuseum Thun addresses a broad public. It is a place in which to engage with art, so the main focus is not on the result of a museum visit, but, on the process, the positive experience. Related with the current exhibitions guided tours and special events are offered. The Kunstmuseum Thun is open to exchanges between the different art genres and the exhibitions are accompanied by a varied program of music, film, literature. The team of the art education offers workshops for children and young people, projects involving artist and on the Family Sunday a summer festival that includes different generations.
Museum shop and Café Thunerhof The Kunstmuseum shop stocks the catalogues accompanying the exhibitions, as well as a wide range of books, posters, art postcards and multiples. This shop, the best art book store in the region, also has a large selection of highly original art books for children. The Café Thunerhof serves warm and cold snacks in a pleasant atmosphere. Before or after a visit to the museum, the terrace of the former Grand Hotel is a great attraction where one can enjoy coffee and cake against the impressive backdrop of the Bernese Oberland.
Works from the collection of the Kunstmuseum Thun are not permanently on display.

Copyright © PS Thun Castle (schloss); 1180s on. Now museum. Thun, Switzerland........... To Thun (pronounced more-like Toon) 30 minutes from Bern. This historic town sits astride the Aare river incorporating a central island, like a mini-Paris. It's also at the head of its eponymous lake. An admirable site with the water, and mountain backdrop; it started on the island and spread onto adjacent shores. On a small, steep hill above one side was built the keep of the Thun castle in the 1180s. The Schlossberg dveloped accordingly. (The name Thun designates a fortified hilltop settlement surrounded by pallisades.) The castle is now preserved and its raised distinctive outline is the symbol of this town today. The massive stone walls of the castle rise up from its hilltop to the chisel-shape of its roof and four pinnacled corners. Nowadays five spacious halls of the keep house a Historical Museum (including a Knight's Hall with large story-telling tapestries). A great view can be had of the surrounding countryside from terraces and the upper castle, with mountain silhouettes beyond encompassing the scene.
