Kornhausforum Bern

The Kornhausforum is an exhibition and discourse venue for socially relevant topics. We want to encourage rethinking and amazement.

Since it was founded in 1998, the Kornhausforum, centrally located in downtown Bern, has been the exhibition and discourse venue for socially relevant topics that are thought about and treated in an interdisciplinary manner, starting from the areas of architecture, design and photography. The Kornhausforum is a place for public participation and cultural encounters, the exhibitions and forums are physically and digitally accessible to a wide audience. The Kornhausforum is regionally relevant and anchored in its choice of topics as well as nationally and internationally networked. To work on these complex topics, we rely on co-creation with our partners and external experts. The social relevance and urgency of the exhibition topics and forums as well as their qualitative development and implementation is the focus of our activities and thus forms part of the public knowledge discourse: We want to stimulate new thinking and amazement.
