Fotomuseum Winterthur

With its pictures ranging from art to documentation of the ordinary, the Swiss Mecca of photography captivates not only hardened fans. Both contemporary and classical photography find a fascinating setting in the Museum of Photography.

Whether fashion or architecture, industry or craft, professional life or leisure time – the view through the lens provides access to other worlds. With its changing exhibitions the Museum of Photography makes sure that this access is not reserved solely for photographers. The works of classical masters of the 19th and 20th century let the mind wander back to the past, whilst the photographs of contemporary artists dwell in the here and now.
