Musée H.R. Giger

On June 20, 1998, the MUSEUM HR GIGER opened its doors in the medieval Château St. Germain in the 400 year old historic, walled city of Gruyères, Switzerland. As the permanent home to many of Giger's key works, the museum houses the largest and most impressive collection of the artist's paintings and sculptures, furniture and film designs, dating from the early 1960's till the present day. The museum's top floor houses a permanent display of Giger's own private art collection and the Museum Gallery where Giger curates one-man exhibitions on the work of other artists. The museum is a work in progress and a Giger Bar, adjoining the museum, is completed.
