In the run-up to Museum Night Bern 2025, participating Bernese cultural institutions collected their accessibility information with Ginto. In doing so, they make access to their museum visible to people with disabilities.

Bern sets a good example

In the run-up to Museum Night Bern 2025, around 30 cultural institutions collected their accessibility information with Ginto. These were then published on the event's barrier-free website under the heading”accessibility” communicates clearly for visitors.

Thanks to these and other inclusion measures, access to Museum Night Bern was also made possible for people with disabilities.

The campaign was initiated by Sara Stocker Steinke, managing director and owner of Inkluseum, and supported by the OK:GO initiative.
