Are you looking to explore the Vitra Campus, along with its architecture, art and culture, in a child-friendly manner? There are plenty of activities such as guided tours, workshops, family events and attractions such as the little elephant garden or the popular Slide Tower, which are specially designed for young visitors. The campus has something for all ages.

Children are observant, creative, and imaginative. We make use of these qualities to explore, compare, and experiment with shapes, materials, and colors in a playful way. Topics of design and architecture are approached from a child-friendly perspective. In doing so, imagination is fostered, manual skills are developed, and the basic principles of construction and statics are introduced. We hold the power to improve and beautify our designed environment ourselves — this confident and responsible attitude can be ideally cultivated in design and architecture workshops.

Reaching 30.7 metres in height, the Vitra Slide Tower is simultaneously a viewing platform, slide and work of art. It consists of three diagonal steel columns that meet at the top, with a large revolving clock measuring six metres in diameter mounted at their point of intersection. The tower construction is accessed by a switchback staircase with intermediate landings positioned between the slanted columns. A viewing platform at a height of 17 metres offers an impressive view of the Vitra Campus and its surroundings and is the starting point for the 38-metre-long corkscrew tube slide. We hope you have fun!

Throughout the year, the Vitra Campus hosts a variety of events for families, such as the annual Vitra Campus Summer Night and other seasonal events. Subscribe to our Vitra Newsletter and download the Vitra Campus app to make sure you don't miss out.

Inaugurated in 2022, Place Jean Prouvé invites visitors to linger and picnic on the Vitra Campus. Here the Citroën foodtruck is open at weekends when the weather is fine, with a range of sweet pastries, ice creams and cold drinks.

The VitraHaus Café and Depot Deli provide children's menus and during the warm summer days, two food trucks offer take-away food and drinks.
