Permanent exhibition

The permanent exhibition in Albert Anker’s former home presents the artist’s life and work in thematic sections. The man and artist are portrayed both in his home village of Ins in Bern and in the national and international context of the 19th and early 20th centuries. A series of alcoves document numerous exciting and surprising stages in his life, from the Anker family and his companions to Anker’s interest in education, history and technology.

The permanent exhibition is bilingual, supported by audiovisual media, self-explanatory and can be visited individually.

Special exhibition in the Art Pavilion

The upcoming special exhibition Welcome Home: Donations to the Centre Albert Anker Foundation, will run from Saturday 30 May to Sunday 25 October 2026 and is open to the public.

Accessibility

The Albert Anker House dates back to 1803 and was built as a typical regional farmhouse. The historic rooms of the house and studio have been preserved as historical artefacts and are therefore not accessible.

The new art pavilion, the reception room in the Albert Anker House and parts of the permanent exhibition are barrier-free. Please contact us by email before your visit: info@centrealbertanker.ch.
