Fascinating Olympics Museum visit - Olympics Museum
As a fan of the Olympics, I was giddy to be in the presence of greatness. I learned a lot of things, most especially the contribution of the founder. My favorite part is the original Olympic flag displayed here.
The torch, costumes, mascots, and memorabilia of each and every player is interesting to see.
This was also free from the Swiss Travel Pass. The Olympics Museum garden is fun to visit as well overlooking Lake Geneva outside.

Exceptional - The museum was absolutely fascinating. Clear and well laid-out, and covering all aspects of the Games, from its origins in Ancient Greece to information about each of the Games since 1896. The clothing and equipment worn by past Olympians were very interesting, as were the display of the torches from different years. Great digital displays. I would highly recommend this.

So Much to See - If you ever visit Switzerland, this is a must. It is especially fascinating for sports fans, but even non sports fans would find it interesting. There is so much history about the Olympic Games. There is a variety of information about the sporting events, athletes and politics of the games. Information is available in a variety of platforms, including short videos, audio, photos and items of clothing worn by athletes.
There was so much to see, we could have easily spent the whole day there. Would go back.

Go see it! - This is, without a doubt, one of the best things to see in Lausanne. The exhibits are presented in a clear, logical manner. It is so inspiring to learn about the Olympics and to see so many historic items. I broke into goose bumps when I saw Jesse Owens' shoe. It is a beautiful facility with a lot of interesting outdoor sculptures.

To do - In this year 2024, we were in Geneva... we thought we should go, well, we loved it.
The place, the setting, the structure, the concept, go ahead.

Why is the name of the museum in English???? - We are on the French version of TripAdvisor, Lausanne is a francophone city, its founder was French so why is it listed in English??? It is a kind of totally unjustified expropriation!
The museum is expensive and its interest quite limited, perhaps because part of it was closed (the basement ) without any discount on the price for that matter.
Probably reserved for fetishists of sports outfits and equipment given their abundance!
The excellence claimed in the field of sport does not extend to spelling since mistakes abound on the explanatory signs: the past participle “regulated” is marked with a final “t”, we speak of the “underground” network of the London Underground, “road cycling included” instead of “includes”, etc.
This will reinforce some in the idea that athletes are angry with the "intellect".
The building is very beautiful as well as the park and the sculptures that populate it.
Perfect welcome.

Meh - We expected more artifacts from past Olympic events and locations. Not much to do. Difficult to see videos in the viewing room. I didn’t see any medals from past events. The grounds and lake view were beautiful. Otherwise, this was a no-hum visit.
