Fine artist, good museum
If you have never heard of the artist Segantini, go take a look st some fine pictures depicting the area around St Moritz. He is known in art circles and is perhaps a forerunner of Van Gogh. Large canvasses show the local majestic mountains and the hard life and conditions before some Brits invented winter sports and the area became prosperous. Then the railway arrived and the rest is history. Do visit the museum!

A little gem of a Museum
When a day sick left me unable to ski I decided to indulge my next favorite thing and visit an art museum. I am so happy I found this one. The museum itself if a work of art built especially to house the painting by this amazing artist. The upper floor contains the three paintings he produced for the 1890 world exhibit in Paris. There is a bench in the room so you can sit and absorb the works that left me breathless. The main floor has other smaller but equally inspiring works. The staff were very friendly and helpful and the place is kept in impeccable condition. Take the time to visit it is well worth it!

small and dense art museum
The Segantini Museum offers the opportunity to meet an artist who is too little known. The building is very interesting and has a history of itself. Location is fabulous with views of the city of St, Moritz, of the lake and mountains around. The museum is quite small (three rooms) but full of original and good quality art. The audio-guide provides excellent extra information. I found it rather expensive for its size. Payed parking in the street near the museum, risks to fill quickly in busy season.
