Top 5 Art Museums in Zürich

Badenerstrasse 173, 8003 Zürich, Switzerland

“My favourite cinema in Zurich! And they have also sweet popcorn 🍿 They're always super friendly and the range of drink options is amazing. Love that you can take the drinks with you in the cinema. This is how cinemas should be! Make sure to get one of their fancy cinema cards. …”

Forchstrasse 260, 8008 Zürich, Switzerland

“Nice museum with a decent variety of displays and an upstairs section with some miniatures and dioramas. Some placards and descriptions are in English which is good for tourists. The museum is a nice, inexpensive and fascinating visit for anyone interested in trams and railway tech. You can walk through some of the trams, and ring the bells on them which is quite cool. There's some play areas and a small interactive tram for kids. At the time we were there, very few of the upstairs displays were interactive and there were not a lot of placards offering information. It's not a terribly diverse or large museum so it may not be the best stop for tourists only visiting for a day or two, unless you're really interested in Trams specifically. Staff are super nice and seem to be passionate about the museum.”

Germaniastrasse 99, 8044 Zürich, Switzerland

“Outstanding, genuine, and entertaining! Unbelievable how much a local theatre can offer so much more than a high street place.”

Stadthausquai 12, 8001 Zürich, Switzerland

“Nice location, I have been there for an evening party during the Film Festival.”

Grüzenstrasse 44-45, 8400 Winterthur, Switzerland

“Fotomuseum Winterthur is one of the greatest and oldest most contemporary Photography museum in Europe, It's very well known with it's tow wonderful temporary exhibitions, one is very up to date contemporary Photography exhibition, and the other is great historical one from their own archive collection.”

Gottfried-Keller-Strasse 7, 8001 Zürich, Switzerland

“The movie broke down in the middle of the screening (no sound). It took them almost 20minutes to stop the film and inform the guests that it can‘t be fixed. Then everyone has to queue up to get a voucher, instead of just handing them out to everyone leaving. No excuse nothing! No wonder streaming is taking over.”

Selnaustrasse 25, 8001 Zürich, Switzerland

“Very interesting givint the space space exposition plus Damien Ortega temporary exhibition. They give away a prize of 100k for creating a exposition worth 80k and 20k remains for the artist. Will return at the vernisage. People usually confuse it with the bar at the other corner of the builduing, Kraftwerk. Museum has a small, but cozy coffee shop. Nice wardrobe and storage available.”

Englischviertelstrasse 9, 8032 Zürich, Switzerland

“Kulturama is undeniably one of the finest museums in Zurich and its surrounding areas. Regardless of age, from toddlers as young as two, right up to adults, there's something captivating for everyone. The museum masterfully educates its visitors, delving deep into the origins of humanity, intricacies of the human body, and the fascinating journey of evolution. It's not just a visit, but a profound learning experience that leaves you with a greater appreciation for our existence and history. Highly recommended for both the curious minds and those eager to learn.”

Kirchpl. 14, 8400 Winterthur, Switzerland

“Not a big museum but very well done. Make sure to visit the upper floor with the materials exhibition. You can get lost there for hours, finding out all kinds of fascinating things about materials and products!”

Nägelihof 4, 8001 Zürich, Switzerland

“No food or drinks for sale, no one checked our tickets we just walked in and the rake of the seats was not steep so it was hard to see past people to see the screen”

Limmatstrasse 270, 8005 Zürich, Switzerland

“Nice art space with many different collections and galleries. Nice Franz West, Dieter Roth exposition at the moment just at the lest of the entrance. The space is a bit cold and not curated at the best of its capabilities. However, there is room for improvement and the artwork is nice”
