In St. Moritz, cultures, ideas and stories come together. Museums, galleries, architecture and a rich heritage shape the character of the town and have long made it a cultural hub of the canton of Graubünden. 

Great names from literary history, such as Friedrich Nietzsche, Hermann Hesse, Thomas Mann and Rainer Maria Rilke, found inspiration, a place of retreat and new perspectives here. 

This creative legacy lives on to this day – in carefully curated museums, exciting exhibitions and a remarkably vibrant gallery scene. Contemporary art meets Alpine motifs; international perspectives meet regional identity. The Art Boutique Hotel Monopol, with its art collection, also blends harmoniously into this inspiring setting.

Here is a selection of museums and galleries in St. Moritz: 

• St. Moritz lies at 1,856 metres above sea level, making it one of the most famous high-altitude health resorts in the Alps. 
• St. Moritz enjoys around 322 days of sunshine a year and is exceptional in this respect too. It is no surprise that the locals refer to the town as the ‘sunny high valley’ – here, you can soak up the sun in both winter and summer.  
• The Chantarella funicular and the Marguns gondola lift take you up to St. Moritz’s local mountain, Corviglia, every day from 7.45 am. A total of 350 kilometres of slopes await winter sports enthusiasts in the Engadin; the runs are spread across various ski areas. So every day you can decide anew whether to strap on your skis at Corviglia above St. Moritz, at Corvatsch or in the Diavolezza/Lagalb ski area.
• The glamorous Alpine resort of St. Moritz, which has long been a haunt of the European elite, harbours more history than one might suspect, far removed from all the glitz and glamour. The iron-rich mineral springs that made this place famous were discovered over 3,000 years ago.
• Winter tourism since 1864. Initially established as a summer retreat, guests first had to be encouraged to travel to the Upper Engadine in winter as well. They were persuaded, came, and have ever since succumbed to the charm of winter in St. Moritz.
