If you enjoy European history, this place is a must-see! If only they had more love for the English language.

On the last floor there is a great model of the city as it stood around 1840. Just before we tore down the city walls. Fascinating work and fun to compare with the current city.

The museum which is inside is not the best ever, but you really should visit it as it is probably the only chance you will have to enter a traditional Geneva manor. The owners tried to recreate the atmosphere of a burger house of the 16th cebtury, and they did it quite well.

There is much to enjoy here. Walking through this oldest of homes in Geneva is a treat and it is fun to imagine the families that have lived here. It is all free and you go at your own pace. The info about Geneva and the city replica are worth a visit by themselves. The light show illustrating the growth... More

totally worth a visit. Make sure you check out the replica on the city on the top floor. infact, skip everything else and just go for that.
