Gift guide for nostalgia lovers
Every week from now until Christmas we tell you where to find the best gifts in Zurich. Today: these second-hand stores and thrift shops are brimming with everything from cool ‘80s jackets to kitsch vases.
Zürcher Brockenhaus
‘Overpriced, pretentious kitsch? No way!’ says Jenja Doerig, who works at the Zürcher Brockenhaus. Here, he sells antiques, designer furniture and ‘a lot of must-have items’.

Onkel Emma
Onkel Emma is a safe environment where young people can gain valuable work experience as well as a shop where you can buy everything from trainers and hoodies to vintage items and any of the store’s interior décor. But shop manager Daniel Buchschacher does find it difficult to part with some of these treasures.

The New New
The two founders of The New New have felt the impact of the trend for decluttering. That’s because, in their shop in district 6, Michèle Roten and Lucy Prader only sell clothes that people no longer want. This includes everything from designer blazers to fast fashion shirts.
