HR Giger Museum Bar
A Giger Bar is a bar themed and modelled by the Swiss artist H. R. Giger. There are two Giger Bars: the first, the H.R. Giger Bar in Chur, Switzerland, which opened in 1992, and the second is The Museum HR Giger Bar, located in Château St. Germain, Gruyères, Switzerland, which opened on April 12, 2003. There was a third Giger Bar, located at The Limelight in New York City, but when the Limelight was closed, the Giger Bar was shut down.
A fourth Giger bar was located in Shirokanedai, Tokyo in the late 1980s. Giger dissolved his involvement with this location after facing frustrations with Japanese building codes and with the Japanese company behind the bar, which created the bar after only rough preliminary sketches. Giger had wanted private booths that functioned as individual elevators which traveled up and down the interior four stories of the design. This design was problematic given restrictions caused by earthquake resistant engineering. Giger disowned the Tokyo Giger Bar and never set foot inside. Within a few years, the establishment was out of business.
The interior of the bars are themed along the lines of his biomechanical style as shown in the Alien films. The roof, walls, fittings and chairs are all modelled by the artist and fit into the same designs as seen in the films he designed, notably Alien. The prominent high-backed chair design was originally intended as a Harkonnen throne for an abandoned Dune film project.

Looking Around the Giger Bar, Chur, Switzerland (No Audio)
Audio removed, because it was just 90's English-language pop music playing over the bar speakers. Nothing too interesting.

Gruyères, Switzerland / HR Giger Museum Bar
Quick highlight reel of a 2018 trip to Gruyères, Switzerland. Visiting the HR Giger Bar and Museum. Sleepy quiet country village on top of a mountain. Perfect destination for seclusion in the Swiss Alps. Just two minutes long. Filmed with GoPro HERO 4 and iPhone 7 Plus. Music was done by both an Egyptian and Congo drum, Korg Kontrol 49 and Haitian spirits....
HR Giger interview Gruyeres Switzerland
HR Giger is probably best known for his creature which was brought to life in the franchise of Alien films. But for almost 50 years Giger has been producing artwork and has established himself as one of the word's best Fantastic Realism artists.
Born in 1940 in Chur Switzerland he know resides in Zurich Switzerland. But JustSayGo's television host and travel journalist Ron Stern caught up with Giger at his bar in Gruyeres Switzerland. The artist is not known for giving many interviews, especially on camera, which is what makes the exclusive interview so special.
Ron was also able to talk to Giger's wife Carmen Maria Giger who mentions having a poster of Giger's work when she was 17 but had no idea who the artist was.
He is an artist that has had a career most artists would envy. Early in his career he set himself apart by using a freehand airbrush technique to develop his own unique and now well known style.
In 1977 he published the book Necronomicon which is what was the visual inspiration for director Ridley Scott's film Alien. The director commissioned HR Giger to design the film's title character as well as the film's alien environment. These designs earned Giger an Oscar in 1980 for Best Achievement in Visual Effects.
Giger's work also had an influence on rock n roll. His work graced the cover of many notable musicians such as Debbie Harry, Danzig, and Celtic Frost, just to name a few. His most well known though is probably Emerson, Lake, and Palmer's 1973 album Brain Salad Surgery. Sadly the original art work from that double cover was recently stolen and is still missing.
Today HR Giger's work can be found through out Europe. You can find more information about HR Giger, his work, and where it is currently on display at his website.
H R Giger Museum & Gruyeres Castle | Switzerland | Documentary (2019)
- A short documentary / video essay about the small, medieval town of Gruyeres in Switzerland. Probably most famous for it's cheese, Gruyeres is actually home to the museum of infamous artist H. R. Giger - the man behind the creation of the Xenomorph creature in Ridley Scott's 1979 film 'Alien'.
The town is also home to a castle, now a public museum too, which resembles something from a fairy tale. The film explores some of the artwork on display in the museum, namely by Patrick Woodroffe, and showcases many of the rooms towards the end.
The music used is by Cliff Eidelman and the Royal Scottish National Orchestra, originally created for the Playstation 1 videogame 'Alien Trilogy', based on the original Ridley Scott, James Cameron and David Fincher movies.

H.R. Giger Museum Bar
In Château St. Germain, Gruyères, Switzerland, The interior of the otherworldly environment that is the H.R. Giger Museum Bar is a cavernous, skeletal structure covered by double arches of vertebrae that crisscross the vaulted ceiling of an ancient castle. The sensation of being in this extraordinary setting recalls the tale of Jonah and the whale, lending the feel of being literally in the belly of a fossilized, prehistoric beast, or that you have been transported into the remains of a mutated future civilization. On June 20, 1998, the MUSEUM HR GIGER opened its doors in the medieval Château St. Germain in the 400 year old historic, walled city of Gruyères, Switzerland. As the permanent home to many of Giger's key works, the museum houses the largest and most impressive collection of the artist's paintings and sculptures, furniture and film designs, dating from the early 1960's till the present day. The museum's top floor houses a permanent display of Giger's own private art collection and the Museum Gallery where Giger curates one-man exhibitions on the work of other artists. The museum is a work in progress and a Giger Bar, adjoining the museum, is completed.
