Patumbah listening experience

Join us on a tour of the extravagant Villa Patumbah in Zurich's Seefeld district and listen to a series of stories. Tales of lucky dragons and tobacco fields, demolition plans and the hotdog corner. Stories told by individuals who have deeply personal memories and experiences associated with the villa. Immerse yourself in the building's eventful past and learn about current issues and challenges in dealing with historic monuments.

 

 

Note: Headphones are recommended for an optimal experience. The tour starts at the reception of the Swiss Heritage Center, while the final stop takes you through the park and ends in front of the villa. Please note our opening hours.

Duration: 8 stops, 45 minutes
