Poets and city museum

The Poets and City Museum displays collections related to regional writers and poets while documenting the development of Liestal through exhibitions and artifacts.

Founded in July 1946, the museum received recognition as a Class B Swiss cultural property, marking its role in preserving regional literary heritage.

The museum features permanent exhibitions that present the literary works, manuscripts, and personal items of writers connected to the Basel-Landschaft region.

Located at Rathausstrasse 30 in Liestal, the museum offers guided tours through its collections and maintains research facilities for literary studies.

The museum combines two distinct functions by preserving both literary manuscripts from regional authors and historical documents about Liestal's development.
