In one hundred years, much can change, move, and develop anew. The year 1921 was characterized by many historical and cultural events. The illustrationfrom our archive suggests that it was probablya rather stormy year – similar to the year 2021. The outlook for 1922 was already much clearer, and we are very pleased that this is also the case for Maison Gassmann in 2022. Maison Gassmann is returning "home" just in time for its 140th anniversary!


Childhood memories of shopping at Ballon Rouge have connected young and old for generations. Now the time has finally come: our children's department is becoming an independent boutique. At Kuttelgasse 15 – between Bahnhofstrasse and Rennweg – we will enchant you with our new Kids Fashion world starting in Spring 2022.
More information will follow shortly – you can look forward to it!
