Description
A special attraction of Aarau's old town is hidden above the heads: Around 90 artistically painted roof undersides adorn the historic houses.
Together, the gaze is directed upwards, where surprising motifs reveal themselves on the roof ceilings and tell their stories. These unique paintings shape the cityscape to this day and give Aarau its affectionate nickname "City of Beautiful Gables".
Prices: Adults: CHF 22.- / Apprentices/Students: CHF 17.-
