In the former swimmingpool

The Lumeum is located in the former swimming pool of the historic guesthouse Kloster Bethanien in St. Niklausen, in the canton of Obwalden, above Kerns at an altitude of 800 metres above sea level.

Nestled in a peaceful setting with views of the surrounding mountains and Lake Sarnen — a place that radiates both inspiration and tranquillity.

Inspiring surroundings

Admission begins on the hour, with the show at Lumeum 360° Cinema starting 15 minutes later and lasting around 41 minutes (e.g. admission at 1 p.m., show starts at 1.15 p.m.). You can watch the show a second time at no extra charge – it's really worth it, as you'll discover new details each time!

Before or after the show, you will have time to visit the Lumeum Exhibition, browse the Lumeum shop, find out more about the Lumeum in the foyer or relax in the guest house restaurant with a coffee, a piece of cake or a light snack.
