House Olé. A nest for families. In the middle of the city. Be a part of it!

Haus Olé will open its doors in the heart of St.Gallen's old town in spring 2024. It is all about the compatibility of family, leisure and work. We know that: The first few years as a new family are no child's play. On the first floor, Café Olé invites the little ones to play and the grown-ups to take a pit stop. On the upper floors, there are studio spaces and coworking workstations for flexible rent. A daycare center is located on the top floor. Haus Olé thus creates many opportunities for new families.

Magical and enjoyable moments on the table

On May 10 and 11, 2024, the member event "Aufgetischt bei Raiffeisen" will enter its second round. The street art festival "Aufgetischt St.Gallen" will once again be hosted by Raiffeisenbank St.Gallen on Roter Platz with its artists. You too can enjoy unique and spectacular moments.
