Areal Böhler is being reimagined as a place for forward-thinking ideas, green transformation, and vibrant cultural exchange. The site’s historic factory halls are being carefully restored and framed by new green spaces that bring nature and community back into focus.

At the heart of this transformation is a deep belief in the power of art and culture. In close dialogue with technology, research, gastronomy, and the creative industries, Areal Böhler is becoming a space where disciplines meet, overlap, and inspire one another. It is rooted in the region, yet open to the world — with a focus on contemporary art that engages with the challenges and complexities of our time.

Young, local artists are central to this vision. Areal Böhler offers them space to experiment, connect, and be seen. We invite people from all backgrounds to take part — not just as visitors, but as active participants in a living cultural process. Here, art unfolds in unexpected corners, through bold gestures, and in conversations that welcome many voices.

And this is only the beginning. Our temporary exhibitions and events are laying the foundation for something enduring. We are working toward establishing permanent cultural institutions that will anchor Areal Böhler as a long-term home for creativity, dialogue, and artistic production.
