Haus der Volksmusik
The House of Folk Music was founded in 2006 and serves as an authority on all matters relating to folk music in Switzerland. It supports and fosters the vitality of folk music in its regional and stylistic forms through the activities it organises as well as long-term cooperative projects and musical exchanges in both the Alpine areas and abroad.
