Works of art in Interlaken

Discover these lovingly created artworks in Interlaken

Stroll through the wintry streets from Interlaken Ost to Interlaken West and discover a range of creative works of art along the way in the main squares of the city. The wooden sculptures, produced by students at the Gymnasium Interlaken secondary school, are displayed at various sites around town each winter. Those who don’t wish to walk too far can relax in the Christmas carriage and travel to the works of art in comfort. The carriage operates from 10.00 am to 4.00 pm on all Saturdays over the Christmas period. The round trip takes around 30 minutes.

The Stag

Made by class 18b at Gymnasium Interlaken, the Stag captivates viewers of all ages with its imposing scale, its impressive design using pieces of local driftwood and its delicately rendered stars. This majestic sight welcomes you on Amman-Hofer-Platz in Interlaken.

The "Stärneband"

Take a seat in it, lean back and count the stars and concealed lights of the "Stärneband". This fascinating object produced by classes SFBG 23ad is roof batten art at its finest. Made from a ton of spruce wood sourced from the Bernese Oberland, the looping structure is a place for people to meet, unwind and enjoy a chat. You can find the "Stärneband" at Train Station Interlaken Ost under the tree capony.

The Ibex Family

Just outside on the Postplatz, a family of ibex welcomes you to the scene of a cosy winter fondue. "Say Cheese" is the motto for this artwork, which was created by classes 21abc at the Gymnasium Interlaken. Snap a fun selfie as you join up with friends – then share it with loved ones at home via the hashtag #Winterlaken.

The Winter Bear

Wearing a blue scarf, the Winter Bear skates around Train Station Interlaken West. Class SFBG23 of the Gymnasium Interlaken sets out to show the sporty side of this proud Bernese heraldic beast.
