Barbier-Mueller Museum

Located in the heart of Geneva's Old Town, in a building dating back to the 16th century, the Barbier-Mueller Museum preserves, exhibits and studies a collection of art objects of immense variety that began in 1907. Today it comprises several thousand works ranging from tribal and classical antiquity to the present day and includes objects from every continent. The Barbier-Mueller Museum regularly invites contemporary artists to reflect on the pieces in the collection and to rethink the scenography of the exhibition's rooms, thus renewing our understanding of the works on display. Lectures, meetings, readings and musical events complete the exhibition programme.
