The Wunderkammer presents a display of more than a thousand objects from the collection of Rolf Fehlbaum, Vitra Chairman Emeritus, and Swiss artist Fifo Stricker, which has been assembled over a period of more than forty years. The collection primarily comprises movable objects from popular cultures of the last hundred years, including robots, space toys, comic figures, circus figures, folk art from Brazil and movable shop window displays, known as Baranger Motion Displays. The Wunderkammer is located in a former residential building on Alexander-Girard-Passage, which connects the Vitra Campus with the town of Weil am Rhein. Guests can discover it on regular guided tours.
