Easter Magic at the Swarovski Kristallwelten

A symphony of light and sound

Experience the two new Chambers of Wonder “Pulse Voronoi” and “Crystal Voices” by Rafael Lozano-Hemmer in the Swarovski Crystal Worlds.

Pulse Voronoi:
Imagine crystals shattering all around you. 7,000 transparent crystals, to be precise. They hang from the ceiling and each one of them shines with its own individual brilliance. And yet they are part of a collective that shimmers powerfully together. Suddenly, the crystals begin to glow. At first glance, the rhythm seems random, but it soon becomes clear that they light up in time with your heartbeat. Your pulse and the crystals are in harmony. This unique experience awaits visitors to “Pulse Voronoi”, the largest and newest chamber of wonders in the Swarovski Crystal Worlds.

Crystal voices:
With “Crystal Voices”, Rafael Lozano-Hemmer pays tribute to the previously unknown stories of the company. Visitors experience an acoustic portrait of people who work at Swarovski. They walk under a canopy of 3,000 free-floating crystal loudspeakers, each of which lights up as they pass by and plays a recording - voiced by Swarovski team members. The result is a chorus of voices inspired by the way echoes reverberate in the Austrian Alps. The voices overlap, combining different languages, intonations and echoes to create a spoken story of the people who make up Swarovski.

Winter Wonderland in the garden:
Swarovski crystal and Christmas are inextricably linked - and Dutch designer Tord Boontje is a master at creating fairytale worlds out of crystal. In winter, numerous fairytale figures are always integrated into the extensive and artfully illuminated garden landscape. On the weekends before Christmas and during the vacations, you can enjoy mulled wine, punch, kiachl and more at our Christmas stall in the large square next to the entrance to the garden.
