Sensorium in the Rüttihubelbad

Field of experimentation for the senses

Located near Bern, this interactive museum allows you to rediscover the 5 senses in a playful and original way. 80 stations invite you to experiment and observe the world around you. Young and old alike can test their balance on unusual devices, walk barefoot on different surfaces, experience all the many facets of sound or cause surprising optical illusions. The Sensorium offers multiple and practical starting points for shaping personal lives for schools, teaching and research. It opens up a deeper understanding of the relationship between humans and nature and thus contributes to a broader understanding of environmental education. In this sense, the experience at the Sensorium extends beyond the exhibition itself.

20 years of Sensorium at the Rüttihubelbad - The experience field of the senses celebrates
until Tu, 31.12.2024

The Sensorium at Rüttihubelbad is all about activating sensory perception. 


As a visitor, you will playfully use all your senses at 70 experience stations to hear, see, smell and touch familiar and unfamiliar things. You will experience optical phenomena at rotating discs. The scent tree presents you with a wide variety of smells. Stones, woods and large gongs let you feel sounds and their vibrations. A partner swing lets you experience an active togetherness. 


The Sensorium opens up deeper insights into the connection between man and nature and thus contributes to mindfulness as well as a broader understanding of the environment and nature. In 2024, the exhibition is called "Life is Vibration." New and familiar interactive stations direct the senses to natural phenomena, organs and their interplay.


There is much to discover around the stations in the Sensorium: A vita illuminates the life and work of the carpenter, educator and philosopher Kükelhaus. An art exhibition in the Rüttihubelbad Gallery shows Hugo Kükelhaus as an artist. Artist talks and readings will also be held as part of this exhibition. Various concerts and events enliven the exciting anniversary program.
