Swiss Press Photo 24 showcases the best Swiss photo journalism from the last year. The photos give us a glimpse behind the fast-moving headlines and provide a snapshot of 2023 – from the end of Credit Suisse to the funeral of Pope Benedict XVI. The exhibition features the categories News, Daily life, Swiss stories, People, Sports, and World. It invites us to reflect, makes us smile, and provides compelling evidence that a picture can often say more than a thousand words.
The exhibition presents the best photographs by Swiss press photographers of the year. Why were these particular pictures chosen by the jury? And what do we remember from last year? Visitors will learn stories and background information about selected photographs.

The two exhibitions present the best press photographs from Switzerland and around the world. One of the most important qualities of a press photo is its truthfulness. How is this achieved and what pictorial languages can be discerned? What does freedom of the press mean in photojournalism? The guided tour illustrates how images generate attention for current events.
