    Investment in modern workplaces and training

    The Ferrum Group has inaugurated its new ferruBase extension at its Schafisheim site, according to a press release. With the new building, the mechanical engineering company has realised a vertical production structure that creates space for 240 new office workstations, fully equipped production rooms and a future-oriented training workshop on around 14,000 square metres of floor space. More than 1,000 guests attended the opening and were able to gain an insight into the new building during expert tours.

    According to the press release, the new building seamlessly combines modern production processes with ergonomic office design and a training workshop. During the guided tours, employees, family members and guests were able to gain an initial insight into the architecture, construction method and new machinery. Catering was also provided at the opening ceremony and a varied entertainment programme was offered.

    For Ferrum, the new building is an investment in the future viability of the company and is intended to secure jobs in Aargau in the long term. At the same time, it also demonstrates how tradition and modern technology can be successfully combined.

  • Work begins on extension to Baden cantonal school

    Work begins on extension to Baden cantonal school

    Preparations for the extension of the Baden cantonal school have begun with clearing work on the construction site. According to a press release from the Canton of Aargau, this preparatory work will be carried out during the sports holidays from 3 to 14 February. This involves removing shrubbery and felling trees in the Schönaustrasse area in Baden. This work must be carried out before construction work on the extension begins in July 2025.

    The early start is necessary because the tree felling must be carried out outside the bird breeding season from the beginning of March to the end of September. New trees will be planted across the entire site once the extension has been completed. According to the press release, this will once again take greater account of biodiversity on the grounds of Baden Cantonal School.

    The building permit for the extension to the cantonal school has been valid since the end of October 2024. The extension will include an additional wing for maths, IT, natural sciences and technology (STEM subjects) and a sports wing including a double sports hall.

    In addition, the outdoor facilities and sports pitches will be redesigned. The planned extension represents the final expansion of the site based on the current school planning, according to the canton’s press release.

  • Bern plans to revitalise the Historical Museum

    Bern plans to revitalise the Historical Museum

    The Bern Historical Museum, which is over 130 years old, is about to undergo extensive modernisation and expansion. Following a thorough examination, the Education Commission has recognised the need for comprehensive modernisation and strategic expansion and recommends that the Grand Council approve the project planning credit of CHF 2.5 million. This step is important in order to press ahead with the detailed planning and cost estimates for the refurbishment, extension and integration into the newly designed Museumsquartier Bern.

    The Museum’s Board of Trustees has already set the course for a comprehensive renovation, which envisages both a complete refurbishment of the existing historic building and a modern extension. The planned extension is intended to improve accessibility, open up the museum garden and integrate it into the museum quarter. The new building will also make the museum barrier-free and support modern exhibition concepts.

    The Burgergemeinde Bern has already approved a loan of the same amount, and the City of Bern is expected to make its decision later this year. The Education Commission emphasises the advantages of the project, which will not only improve the museum’s infrastructure, but also increase the attractiveness of the site for visitors and open up new opportunities for cultural events and special projects.

    The approval of the project planning credit by the Grand Council is an important milestone for the project, which promises significant added value for the cultural landscape of the canton and the city of Bern. Following approval by the Grand Council and subsequent approval by the electorate, planning work should begin in autumn 2024, with the new museum building scheduled to open in summer 2027.

  • Hirslanden Klinik St. Anna is being renewed

    Hirslanden Klinik St. Anna is being renewed

    The Hirslanden Klinik St. Anna in Lucerne will start renovating its infrastructure in March. This emerges from a message from the clinic on LinkedIn. Initially, work is being carried out on an extension (wing G), which will be located in the area of today's inner courtyard between the car park and the clinic. Among other things, the Institute for Radiology and Nuclear Medicine will be located there.

    From 2023, as part of a second phase, the demolition of two parts of the building is to start, some of which date from the early days of the clinic. These parts of the building will be replaced by a new building (wing A +). This is to become the new heart of future clinic operations.

    The entire construction project should be completed in 2027. According to an article in the “Luzerner Zeitung”, Hirslanden is investing a total of more than 100 million francs in the renovation.

    "With the construction project we are building a bridge to the future," said clinic director Martin Nufer in the article in the "Luzerner Zeitung". The investment also makes it possible to close supply gaps. “In oncology, for example, thanks to the renovation, we can finally also offer radiotherapy, which requires special equipment and facilities. We simply didn't have enough space in today's building, ”says Nufer.

    The St. Anna Clinic in Lucerne was founded in 1911 by the St. Anna Sisters community and has been part of the Hirslanden Private Clinic Group since 2005.
