The Olympic Museum in Lausanne offers a chance to immerse yourself in the rich legacy and exhilarating spirit of the Olympic Games. Visitors can trace the journey of the Games from ancient Greece to the modern-day spectacle, experiencing the dedication, emotions, and triumphs of athletes through state-of-the-art multimedia displays and interactive exhibits. The vision for this museum comes from Pierre de Coubertin, the visionary who reignited the Olympic movement and established the International Olympic Committee (IOC). Opened in 1993 in Lausanne’s Ouchy district, the museum honors the unifying power of sport and serves as a global center for Olympic history and culture. Set along the stunning shores of Lake Geneva, the museum’s contemporary architecture houses an impressive collection of artifacts, films, documents, and exhibits that bring the past and present of the Olympics to life. Visitors can explore treasures ranging from ancient relics to modern memorabilia. On weekends, a visit can be topped off with brunch at the TOM Café, where spectacular views of the lake and mountains enhance the experience.
