Museumsnacht


Friday night was Basel's annual Museumsnacht. We bought a pass for 20CHF each and were able to visit 30+ museums in and around Basel from 18:00 - 2:00. Each museum features speakers (the architecture museum had speakers, but they were all German), live music (Kunstmuseum), puppet shows (puppet museum) food and/or drinks (all) and publish a schedule well in advance so you can decide what attractions you're interested in. As you've heard us say before, these museums are TOP QUALITY - we visited: Architecture Museum, Puppet Museum, Foundation Beyeler.

The VIRTA Museum was also included - we didn't make it there on Friday because we had a private tour when we visited in August. It's an architectural wonder. See the pictures here.
