About

Museum Strauhof in Zürich offers an intimate yet powerful experience for literature enthusiasts. Established in 1950, this attraction has garnered an impressive 4.4 average rating on Google, and it's easy to see why. The current Franz Kafka exhibition provides a deep dive into the life of this iconic writer, shedding light on his background, personal struggles, and friendships. Visitors can explore Kafka's world through a thoughtfully designed space, enhanced by an innovative auditory experience; simply put on a pair of headphones and be transported into the atmosphere of his novels. The building, both classic and beautiful, houses cleverly displayed modern literary arts that captivate the imagination. Although the visit lasts about 1.5 hours, the insightful journey into Kafka's world makes it highly recommended. Just ensure to check the opening hours accurately, as unexpected early closures might occur, like the one at 1.30 pm on Sunday. Don't miss the intriguingly placed bathroom, which feels as if you've walked into the pages of a Kafka story. With an entrance fee of just 10 CHF, Museum Strauhof is a small yet exceptionally engaging cultural spot in Zürich.

Die Ausstellung zu Virginia Woolf bietet aufschlussreiche Einblicke in die Zeit vor hundert Jahren. Ich staune immer wieder über den Ideenreichtum der Museumsverantwortlichen für die vielgestaltigen Ausstellungskonzepte! Danke.

Es war ein schöner Besuch in der Ausstellung über Mrs. Dalloway. Die Vernissage war fantastisch, inhaltlich das Thema gut aufbereitet und interessant dargeboten. Hier wird man mit Heißen und kalten Getränken empfangen. Es war ein super toller, geselliger Abend!!! Danke an das ganze Team
