  • A must see! We took a guided tour with a large group and have learned so much. Perfect for a rainy day. Remember Paracelse lived here.

  • Great museum with good and clear explanations about our history. As we don’t learn much about our country at school it was for me a great opportunity to learn more. Very interesting.

  • What an incredible and inspirational experience - to be able to see history so close up! Our "Tour de Suisse" students were absolutely blown away by this amazing opportunity! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
  • Great museum & very friendly staff! Worth a visit!!
  • Such an interesting museum ☺️
  • The original earliest treaties which lay the foundation of the Swiss confederation can be seen here. There are also a number of touch-screens explaining in great detail the origins and early history of the Swiss confederation (in German, French Italian and English). Very instructive if you want to understand exactly how the Swiss confederation came into place. Nothing very spectacular though - no arms, no armors, no battle scenes or anything alike.
  • Museum of the Swiss Charters houses the documents from 1291, that made Switzerland a Confederation. A must from a Historical perspective.
