The Henry-Dunant-Museum keeps the memory of Henry Dunant, founder of the Red Cross International alive. The museum is placed in the same house where Dunant lived more than 20 years, until he died in 1910. The permanent exhibition shows his whole life, as well as the influence of Dunant on the International Red Cross movement. Beside his political ideas and his commitment to humanity you can follow his last years in this region of Appenzell Ausserrhoden. The museum includes a multimedia room where visitors can enjoy watching videos of his life. Another interesting item on display in the museum is a replica of the Peace Bell from Nagasaki, Japan.
