Rudolf Steiner

Inspired by Rudolf Steiner's work, hundreds of thousands of people around the world are finding inspiration to make meaningful choices in their daily lives - for parenting and community, for healing the Earth, for artistic and scientific endeavors, and for building a new culture of freedom, equality and solidarity.

Anthroposophical associations exist almost everywhere in the world today. They exist wherever people feel a certain questioning about the nature of humanity and the world as a necessity of human life, just like hunger and thirst. This dimension manifests as belief, doubt or longing. Anthroposophy allows the reality of the spiritual world to be experienced more concretely and to guide one's life. It is a matter of growth.

Rudolf Steiner (1861 - 1925), the founder of anthroposophy, saw this as the development of a consciousness of human dignity. The more complex modern technical civilization becomes, the more vital it is to create a space for every human being - regardless of where they were born, what culture they grew up in or what level of education they have reached - to recognize and realize their unique potential. There is also a social duty.

This is the task of the Anthroposophical Society. It emerges where people inspired by anthroposophy engage in a creative dialog, where the experiences of some evolve in connection with the experiences of others.

Its members can be organized in large or small groups, geographically or according to the tasks at hand. This is why today there is a wide variety of national and local groups, as well as related groups in different fields, which are part of the General Anthroposophical Association, headquartered in the Goetheanum.

Its members can organize themselves geographically or in smaller or larger groups according to their tasks. This is why today there are various national and local groups as well as groups linked to specific topics in different fields - all of which are part of the General Anthroposophical Society in the Goetheanum.

The Anthroposophical Society in Switzerland is one of these national groups. It was founded in Dornach on October 31, 1920 by 7 branches of the then Anthroposophical Society. Headquartered at Oberen Zielweg 60, Dornach, the association promotes spiritual research and the deepening of Anthroposophy in Switzerland in different fields of work and life, such as agriculture, food, medicine, health, pedagogy, remedial pedagogy and social therapy, art, architecture, natural sciences, economics and social sciences.
