Swiss National Museum

The Swiss National Museum, part of the Musée Suisse Group, itself affiliated with the Federal Office of Culture, is located in the city of Zürich, Switzerland's largest city, next to the Hauptbahnhof.

The museum building of 1898 in the historicist style was built by Gustav Gull in the form of the French Renaissance city chateaus. His impressive architecture with dozens of towers, courts and his astonishing park on a peninsula between the rivers Sihl and Limmat has become one of the main sights of the Old City district of Zürich. Its inauguration was filmed by François-Henri Lavanchy-Clarke, the first non-french concessionary of the Lumière brothers.The exhibition tour takes the visitor from prehistory through ancient times and the Middle Ages to the 20th century.
