About this place

Are you curious to know how Thun once kept floods under control or drove water wheels? Find out at close hand where bathing girls once splashed about in the Aare, how washing was done in the past and why water even influenced nightspots. If you think the Aare and Lake of Thun are the only points of contact the people of Thun have with water, you are wrong. On the roughly 1.5-hour walk, you dive deep into the topic of water. This valuable element has left its mark in many areas, both in the past and today. A critical voice on the Kander, a washerwoman and a bathing girl give you exciting insights into their daily lives. Let yourself be surprised.
