Intro

This special exhibition presents the history of Heimberg/Steffisburg ceramics through selected ceramics.

Alongside the Bernisches Historisches Museum and the Rittersaalverein Burgdorf, the Museumsschloss Thun is an important Bernese regional museum for the history of ceramics in the Canton of Bern and German-speaking Switzerland. Since its foundation, the focus has been on collecting ceramics and researching regional ceramic production.

Today, the museum houses one of the largest collections of ceramics in the canton, including the most important collection of "Thun majolica" and special pieces by ceramists such as Friedrich Ernst Frank, Caesar and Hans Schmalz, as well as the Desa art pottery. Thanks to the CERAMICA Foundation Basel, a general inventory of the ceramics collection is currently being carried out.

This special exhibition offers an insight into the diverse inventory of ceramics, designs and working materials from Heimberg and Steffisburg ceramics workshops, with the entire collection to be made accessible online by 2025.
