Portraying the end of the Franco-Prussian in 1871 it’s a superb vivid account. With subject matter the fleeing of a French army under Gerneral Bourbaki to neutral Switzerland after their defeat...

If you're close by the Panorama, it's worth stopping to see it. I wouldn't make a special trip, though. It's very close to the Lion Memorial.

You get free entry to this museum with Swiss Travel Pass, otherwise you need to pay a nominal fee. The museum itself is not quite huge, consisting only of a 360 degree painting depicting the Bourbaki army and their loss in the war. However, it is quite a surreal experience sitting admist the museum and reading about the history of the war, as well as the details of the painting. Highly recommend to visit this place together with the Lion Monument and Glacier Garden.

It is pointing to almost 200 old history which is still actuall. War and imigration ...impresively done!

They recently added a new interactive tour, which is great! For the first time, I actually understood what it's all about. If they offer you a tablet guide, be sure to take it!

Excellent depiction of an old battle in 360 degrees

In these days of 3d virtual realities when ancient battles can be brought back to life through computer graphics a still panorama feels a little anachronistic. On the other hand it is a giant one and you get a sound accompaniment with a narrative that explains what you see. Additionally you can rent mobile devices with earphones to dig even deeper in the historical facts.
