Join us for a curated series of architectural explorations across Basel; this excursion is called, “At the Fringe: Klybeck, Kleinhüningen, Weil-am-Rhein, and Rhine Harbor.” These tours peel back the layers of the city’s industrial and modernist heritage to reveal how contemporary architects are repurposing the past to create sustainable, cooperative spaces for the future.

We explore Aktienmühle, the former flour mill repurposed for creative workshops and other uses by Metron; St Christophorus Church Center, the new high-rise brick residential building incorporating a chapel by Mathias Lorenz; and the iconic Photographic Studio Frei (HdM 1981) restored and converted into an art gallery by studio ne. We’ll enjoy a coffee break at the Rhine harbor.

  • Duration: 3 Hours with coffee break
  • Capacity: Max 25 participants
