The exhibition “Fotoatelier Wolgensinger – Between Four Eyes” is truly fascinating. It draws you in from the very first images, with photography that feels both intimate and expressive, offering a deep and personal perspective. A remarkable discovery !

Ein Museum mit Tiefgang. Wir staunten ob der Vielfalt der verschiedenen Ausstellungen. Die aktuelle Fotoausstellung hat uns viele Erinnerungen aus unserer Jugendzeit hervorgeholt. Als Pensionierte kennen wir das "alte" Zürich noch gut. Das Museum ist auch für Familien mit Kindern ab 8 Jahren bestens geeignet.
