Also a play creek, climbing rocks, a wooden hut, a swing system and many more toys and equipment, making this an exciting playground suitable for children of all ages. 

 There is all the usual playground equipment as well as a bench for those who prefer to rest. Due to its slightly peripheral location, it is little frequented which is part of its appeal.

10.-20.06.2025: Revision - facility closed. Additional infos.

21.-27.06.2025: The gym is open. Please use the outdoor pool changing rooms and the access from outside of the pool building, thank you.

The gym at Obere Au sports facilities is one of a kind in the area, as the entrance fee also includes entry to the indoor and outdoor pools as well as the Aquamarine warm water experience pool! And even with that combined offer, the entrance is lower than at many other places. So you can warm up swimming a few lengths in the pool, then go off to the gym to pump some irons and then enjoy the relaxing massage jets in Aquamarine to round off the workout. The gym is open daily except Easter, Christmas, New Year and during maintenance. It also has convenient opening times on weekends.

The Swiss saying, “The post is here”, is underscored architecturally in Chur in a striking fashion. The post office building, designed by architects Jean Béguin and Theodor Gohl, was constructed between 1902 and 1904 and is the largest Neo-Renaissance edifice in the city. The fact that it also bears a resemblance to other post office buildings in Switzerland is no coincidence; at that time, the so-called “Federal Renaissance” was strongly promoted by the Swiss government. The imposing appearance of the building is further enhanced by the intricate decoration on the façades and the figures on the roof by Geneva artist James Vibert. Today the building houses the municipal library and a café.

Occasionally politics and theatre seem to be the same thing. But here in Chur they merely share the same roof. The architect, Johannes Ludwig, who also designed the Bündner Kunstmuseum, built an armoury on this site between 1861 and 1863. Its rounded arches are typical of the architectural style that preceded the height of the Neo-Renaissance period and predominantly drew on the Italian Medieval era. The conversion of the former armoury to accommodate the Cantonal Parliament and the municipal theatre was carried out in 1959 accordingto the plans by the architect, Martin Risch.
