Jungfraujoch train station

Recently, the station has been transformed with a spectacular installation that further enhances the arrival and departure of visitors. Designed by iart, it aims to make every moment, from arrival to departure, an unforgettable experience. Walking through the station’s corridors and platform, travellers are greeted by a series of multi-layered chain curtains that transform the space, adding a unique dimension, both visually and sensorially. These curtains, stretching over 30 meters, act as a common thread that guides visitors from the train exit to the observation deck, connecting the subway world with the majestic alpine landscape.

The installation incorporates a light projection that varies according to the time of day. On arrival, the light imitates the softness of dawn, guiding visitors towards the mountain. On departure, on the other hand, the lighting recreates the atmosphere of the evening, with a special focus on the turnstiles where tourists return to the train. In addition, the spotlights and the use of organically deformed glass allow the light to scatter through the space, creating a dynamic and enveloping atmosphere that varies with the changing light.
