Musée du Léman

Nyon, Vaud3 min from Nyon
Rainy-day pick

Musée du Léman is a compact museum entirely about Lake Geneva, from fish and aquariums to boats, storms, science and local history. It works for families because children can move between concrete lake subjects instead of facing one long abstract exhibition.

Why special: It is entirely dedicated to Lake Geneva, not just as a landscape but as a living world with history, boats, fish, science, storms and human stories. The museum mixes aquariums, lake ecology, traditional boats, CGN steamship heritage, fishing and the inventions of the Piccard family.
