La Charmille
The former retirement home La Charmille in Riehen (1947-2002) was more than just a home for the elderly - it was also a place of refuge, a community of destiny and a place of Jewish culture.

With Stefanie and Peter Bollag, contemporary witnesses, and Elio Leu, project team member
The walk starts at the former location on Inzlingerstrasse and ends at the current special exhibition "Shabbes, Schnitzel, Mehrbettzimmer" at the MUKS on the home founded shortly after the Second World War. Stefanie and Peter Bollag, who grew up in the Charmille, and Elio Leu, project team member of the exhibition, are the guides on this journey full of history and stories. They provide insights, share anecdotes and report on how the research seminar led to the exhibition.
