Guided tour through the special exhibition
The "Excavated!" exhibition to mark the 850th anniversary of the town's foundation presents the results of excavations carried out between Schlüsselstrasse and Metzgerstrasse from 2013 to 2015. The finds range from the beginnings of settlement in the 12th century to the first destruction of the town in the 17th century. They shed new light on the early history of the settlement and the period before the town was founded, about which we still know little. The pictures and plans tell of the rapid growth of the medieval town. The objects tell of the prosperity of the citizens and the diligence and skill of the craftsmen, especially the stove makers in Neuchâtel.

The exhibition with lots of visual material, interactive film and audio stations and extra easy-to-understand children's texts offers exciting insights into the town's history for the whole family.
