About This Museum

Tucked away on Gewerbestrasse in the beautiful old town of Solothurn, you'll find a real gem for anyone fascinated by American culture. The American Show 50 is this wonderfully eclectic space that feels like stepping into a vibrant, curated time capsule of the States. I was completely charmed by its mix of classic road signs, vintage advertisements, and pop culture relics that tell a story far beyond the objects themselves. It’s a deeply personal and nostalgic collection that captures the spirit of America with surprising authenticity.

Collection Highlights

The main draws are incredible pieces of mid-century Americana, from a gleaming jukebox to Route 66 memorabilia and all sorts of retro consumer goods that feel plucked from a 1950s dream.

Visitor Information

Heads up, it's currently listed as temporarily closed, so definitely check for updates online before you make the trip to Solothurn.

Architecture & Building

It's housed in a functional, modern building on an industrial street, which makes the classic American treasures inside all the more unexpected.
