Musee d'histoire des sciences
What the experts agree on
Housed in a stunning lakeside villa, this museum showcases exquisite historical scientific instruments—sundials, astrolabes, telescopes, and globes—set within beautiful grounds overlooking Geneva's Pearl Lake.
“Walk-around glass cases display age-old sundials and astrolabes, microscopes and telescopes, barometers and ornate globes that collectively document the evolution of modern science.”
