Job: Curator at the Museum Schauplatz Brunngasse

The Museum Schauplatz Brunngasse is looking for a curator from 1 April 2024. Schauplatz Brunngasse is a young museum in a 700-year-old building in Zurich’s old town. At its centre are murals that were commissioned by a Jewish family around 1330. This work of art is a rare testimony to everyday Jewish culture in the Middle Ages in Europe.
