A few tips and tricks for those visiting: They ask you leave your backpacks and purses downstairs in the provided lockers. The elevator system isn't great, and will always stop at the lobby, no matter what you push, so it's a time consuming process to use it. The restrooms look like they should be pull doors, but they're actually push. It's the oddest thing and the honey and I were both tripped up by it. Overall, we both really enjoyed the museum, much more than the famous Prado, and would highly recommend stopping in if you're visiting Zurich, especially if it happens to be a Wednesday.

It is free on Wednesdays, but that does not include entry to special exhibitions. What makes things worse is that roughly half the collection is currently closed due to a fire. So you're just left with Impressionism and newer stuff. The Impressionist collection is decent at least.

Many pieces I had never even heard of, and yet a small enough collection that I wasn't exhausted after seeing the whole place. The Picasso's came primarily from his later years; and a set of endearing photos of Picasso and his family taken by David Douglas Duncan. And then the floor with other moderns running from the impressionists into painters in the mid-2oth century

The Rietberg Museum is a real must while in Zurich. I am really happy to have visited it. The…read moremuseum is huge and is separated into three different buildings, each of them obviously hosting a different type of exhibition. What makes this museum even more interesting is that the exhibition only contain non-European art. So what you mainly see here is art from Asia. There are also many objects from Africa, mainly wooden statues. In the Villa Wesendork you get to visit a lovely exhibition from Southeast Asia, which really impressed me. The museum lies on a hill and is accessible by tram no 7

The depth and breadth of the museum's collection of artifacts is as impressive as the stunning and voluminous collection of landmark posters. The furniture area was also very cool. It's also one of the least-expensive thing you'll do in Zürich. Yes, it isn't a huge museum, but the entrance price is ultra-reasonable, with discounts for students and seniors.

This is a small but worthwhile museum to visit, especially if you're a fan of design. When I was…read morethere they had exhibits about skyscrapers and a retrospective of a fashion illustrator. Their gift shop was more like a gift "counter," but I liked their selection of merchandise. I guess it's also a school, which explained the "school-like" rest of the building. I spent a pleasant few hours perusing the exhibits and exploring the grounds of the museum as well as the funky surrounding neighborhood.

Sure, there's some modern art by him, photos of some of his buildings, some furniture designed by him & even some design & colouring activities but there's not much info about the buildings & almost none on him. There're some books but the role of a museum is different from that of a library.

This is a small and cozy museum really close to the Luzern Bahnhof. Although the collection is…read morepretty limited in size, I didn't encounter any crowds despite there being a ton of people in Luzern this warm Sunday afternoon.

No bags allowed inside, but they provide free lockers, so lock your valuables and leave your stroller outside. There are a mix of old European arts and modern arts, a small drawing station for the kids you can post on the wall afterwards. There was a room with a single, double, and triple swing! The little kid in me had so much fun playing on the swing. Most importantly, this is one of the few places in Switzerland that actually has AC!!! So if the heat wave hits, and you need to cool off, come here! Took one star from them because there was a military related tent displaying old documentary, except the display has fresh red paint that's not dry. While I really didn't read the wet paint sign, I don't think you should put it on display until it's dry. It was a piece of cloth that can be moved after it's dried...

The most unfriendly "museum" staff I have ever encountered. We went for a photography exhibition…read more The space is rather large and stark white, perfect for a photography exhibition. There were literally four other individuals viewing the exhibition so it was not crowded. We were immediately accosted by a gruff female employee who demanded that one of us stay outside of the exhibition space with our toddler who was sleeping in her stroller. There were no signs stating that toddlers or strollers werent allowed. As we have lived here long enough to know how to deal with the rude and pushy swiss german we firmly told her "NO!" And continued on our way. She evil eyed us as we left but didn't dare try stating anything else. I won't go back.
