Experience the past, present and future of the Aletsch Glacier.
In the new information and mediation room, visitors can turn the wheel of time and experience the Eternal Ice, the Belle Epoque, but also sliding slopes and puny remains of the Great Aletsch Glacier.
The centerpiece is a model installation where visitors can literally turn the "wheel of time" and experience the past, present and future of the Aletsch Glacier. In the in-depth area, climate change is elaborated on the basis of direct effects in the region and the essential question "What is to be done?" is asked. In between, visitors will always find windows on current topics from nature conservation or the region.
On the house tour, which now leads up to the second floor, guests gain an insight into the eventful history of Villa Cassel. From the summer residence of the wealthy English banker to today's Pro Natura Center Aletsch, this history is also shaped by the advance and retreat of the Great Aletsch Glacier.
