ALPS Swiss Alpine Museum
Souvenir
Selfies, Kitsch and Crystals
until Su, 09.01.2028

Whether a selfie, postcard, stone or magnet – souvenirs preserve memories of our mountain journeys. The new exhibition at the Lost and Found Memories Office puts these mementos and their stories centre stage. This participatory format invites visitors to share their own souvenirs from mountain trips. Whether kitsch or status symbol – we're interested in what you bring back and what your souvenirs remind you of. With this new edition of the Lost and Found Memories Office, the ALPS tourism collection is expanded and various perspectives on current tourism questions are discussed.
