Walk through "The Humanitarian Adventure" exhibition, which presents the problems of defending human dignity. This display outlines the idea of reconstructing family links and reducing natural risks. Learn the history of the Red Cross and use the "On the Spot" exhibit to track current Red Cross and Red Crescent operations around the world. Hear the stories of people who have been helped by the institution and the survival skills they learned.

A sobering, moving and interesting museum. Lots of absorbing things to see, albeit that (naturally) some of the stories are going to be moving. Well worth a visit, and this place should be a reminder.... more

A great Museum with a stunning architecture inside. It has a lot to offer, primarily in terms of the red cross history. There are audio guidelines in multiple languages and interactive displays all over the museum. The whole museum is quite up to date in terms of technology. Worth a short visit if you are in Geneva even for a single day. Across the museum, you’ll find the ceramics museum which is also quite cool. They also offer student discount and are free if you have the Swiss travel pass!

Check out the rest of the property if you have time, it's quite nice. English audio guide option available, great exhibits with several interactive elements. I'd say the content of a few of the exhibits is a bit heavy, but very educational. They also have a student discount.

We were glad that we visited. This museum is well organized with people stories, videos, and photo galleries. It provides an overview of the role and positive impact of the Red Cross in war and natural disasters. It heightened our awareness of the traumatic experiences people have due to wars and conflicts. Praying for Ukraine and world peace 🙏

The museum was beautiful so much history contained in the building. It was a fantastic historic educational experience! Absolutely lovely 😁😁😁

Very interesting place. It’s possible to learn Red Cross’s history and also see some very beautiful handcraft made by people assisted by the institution.
