    The Rietberg Museum is known for its art collection from Asia, Africa, America and Oceania, the impressive special exhibitions are attracting great attention worldwide.

    It is the only art museum for non-European cultures in Switzerland, the third largest museum in Zurich and the largest museum operated by the city of Zurich itself. It has around 110,000 visitors a year.


    The Villa Wesendonck was built between 1853 and 1857 by Leonhard Zeugheer.

    In 1945 the city of Zurich bought the Rieterpark and the Villa Wesendonck, the villa was rebuilt, and the Rietberg Museum was opened on May 24, 1952.

    The new “Smaragd” building was opened in 2007; it also offers space for large temporary exhibitions.

      If you are in Zurich and love art, you must not miss the Rietberg Museum, which in my opinion, together with the Kunsthaus, is one of the most fascinating museums in the city.

      Idyllically located in a wonderful park, it offers permanent and temporary art exhibitions from all over the world all year round.

        In addition to the exhibition, the concerts and especially the summer festival in the park every two years are highly recommended. Here you get a much better impression of the other cultures than if you just walk through the exhibition. The summer festival in particular is very popular with the Indian diaspora in Zurich.
