Museum of Communication
Museum für Kommunikation
A highly interactive museum of communication, tracing the story from postal services and telegraphs to computers and social media. Great for families.
Funded by the Swiss Post and the telecom company, the museum focuses on hands-on exhibits. Visitors can write letters to strangers, connect calls at an old-fashioned telephone switchboard, play a digital privacy game, and see a large stamp collection and the early computer ERMETH. The guides actively engage with visitors. Admission is about 15 CHF, with discounts for children. It is located behind the Historical Museum, a two-minute walk away.
Opening hours
Tue–Sun 10:00–17:00
