Olympic Capital Lausanne
The Olympic Capital Lausanne has been home to the International Olympic Committee (IOC) for 100 years. In 1993, the IOC created its only official museum on the shores of Lake Geneva. When it was completely renovated in 2013, the Olympic Museum was equipped with the latest computer and audiovisual technology. The permanent exhibition presents the origins of the Games, the competitions and the sporting spirit through numerous screens and objects, as well as the equipment of the most famous athletes. Thanks to the numerous interactive tools, children can put themselves in the shoes of an athlete for their greatest pleasure.

Temporary exhibitions, a park with numerous works of art and a panoramic restaurant with a view of Lake Geneva and the Alps complete the offer of this unmissable leisure destination in Lausanne.

When it was completely renovated in 2013, the Olympic Museum was equipped with the latest computer technology and audiovisual equipment. Spread over three floors, with 150 screens and 1,500 exhibits, the museum tells the story of the origins of the Olympic Games, the competitions and the Olympic spirit of the athletes. For example, you can see the famous Olympic torches from all the Olympic Games and some of the equipment worn by the most famous athletes.

The Olympic Museum (French: Musée olympique) in the “Olympic capital” of Lausanne was opened on June 23, 1993 on the initiative of Juan Antonio Samaranch.
The museum brings a piece of sports and cultural history closer in a playful way, e.g. through audio-visual shows and original equipment by well-known Olympians from all over the world. Several times a year temporary exhibitions complement the permanent collection. The IOC's philatelic collection deserves a special mention.

There is an interesting shop and a café, the park is full of interesting subjects for photographers.
