Carl Lutz - Lifesaver from Walzenhausen

On Wednesday, 12 February 2025, a temporary museum was opened in Walzenhausen to mark the 50th anniversary of Carl Lutz's death, paying tribute to his extraordinary work and keeping alive the memory of his unprecedented rescue mission. The pop-up museum not only highlights his role as a lifesaver, but also the fatal consequences of anti-Semitism, which is flaring up again today in an alarming way: "Remembering Carl Lutz should also be a warning about the serious consequences racism and anti-Semitism can have. It is the responsibility of our generation to carry on the call of 'never again'".
The Gamaraal Foundation, which is committed to Holocaust survivors and educational work, conceived the exhibition "Carl Lutz - Lifesaver from Walzenhausen" and is responsible for its content and organization.

The museum can be visited during the opening hours of "Just-Welt" (exhibition and sales room, 0041 71 886 42 42).

Opening hours: Monday to Friday 07:30 to 12:00 and 13:00 to 17:00; closed on Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays
