The good thing with this "museum" (it is way too small to be called a museum) is that it promotes science by allowing the visitors to interact. This is always good and very appreciated by kids whose short attention span is kept by all the touching they are allowed to do. I realize that it it a difficult and costly... More

The floral arrangement is just amazing! Like a corner of wonderland. The variety of roses and more or les exotic plants and their arrangement is just marvelous. While enjoying the "garden", one can also discover interesting details about the inventions presented along the paths in the park, but it is far not about inventions. There is also a playground for... More

This place is nicely done out and would make a good spot for an afternoon with kids, but all the exhibits are in french only, no translations are available, so very limited for those who don't speak french. It would be very easy to incorporate some multi-lingual elements into this exhibition. Also, the walk back out is no joke if... More

Lots of different activities to try, well not if your an adult because you can't tell the kids to leave can you? But seemed like fun.

The museum is a great activity for children when visiting Lausanne. The facilities are great and the actual educational activities are fun and will captivate young minds, but the museum is quite small and won't occupy the little ones for a very long time.

We visited this museum in Lausanne. This is a place where the very start of inventions are displayed. Very useful for kids as they could interact with the items here. Some of them have strange shapes of creativity. The tour guide could speak English but you should book the ticket for a group so as not to travel the museum... More
