This is a small but very informative and well-curated museum…read more It was ten Swiss Francs for entry but you could easily spend close to three hours here because they have over an hours worth of short films that talk about the area, the climbing history, the farmers etc. They are very well done. The exhibits show lots of detail about life in the mountains and talk extensively about the first climbers and the tragic situation that caused four of them to fall to their death after having ascended the summit. The museum is basically under ground next to the main church in Zermatt. They do not allow bags into the museum but they give you a free locker in which to place your personal belongings while you are in the museum.

Yelp Review 2026 #150:…read more Matterhorn Museum is a nice place to visit to learn more about Matterhorn in depth. I've never Googled "hiking Matterhorn" or anything like that. Because one, I'm not hiking Matterhorn. Two, I can just look at it from a good distance. You can tell by its shape that that climb is steep and won't be easy. The first hiker in 1865 died. A few more people ascended the mountain. Those who made it to the peak all tried different routes. There's a room with a model of Matterhorn and when you press a button for each hiker's name, it shows you what route they took. Some were straightforward, one did the long roundabout way, one did a zigzag. There are falling rocks making the hike even more challenging. It's in the top 5 highest fatality rate from hiking in the world with over 500 deaths since the first one in 1865. I appreciate dark information like this because it brings you back to reality before you think about something dumb like hike Matterhorn. There was also drama that involves alleged sabotage involving Edward Whymper and guides Peter Taugwalder, Senior and his son PT, Junior vs 4 other hikers who died because of the 3 survivors previously mentioned. The rope that was allegedly cut to separate the survivors from those who fell to their death is in the museum. The actual story is still being debated by these climbers' descendants. Aside from that, the museum also tells you how Zermatt went from a poor town to a popular tourist town. From the first hotels (Monte Rosa, Mont Cervin and Zermatterhof - which are all still operating), church, flora and fauna. There's a weird section where you can see pictures of animals indigenous to Zermatt and their droppings. You can buy tickets at the gift shop. We got in for free using Swiss Travel Pass. The museum is underground. I just Googled "Matterhorn fatality" and sadly, an Italian hiker lost his life a few days ago.

We had never heard of this place so it was a complete surprise! This is exactly how it should be. I don't want to spoil this surprise but will just say it is well worth the trip.

This place was nice at first, seeing the beautiful views after a long hike. It was easy to get…read moreseated but long to get food The food was not very good, was definitely easily made with canned pasta sauce, frozen meats, and some instant spaghetti noodles. In fact it was probably one of the worst spaghettis I've had. I would only get it if I was absolutely starving from a long hike which I was. The waiter in the end asked for an additional tip while his service was poor and service fees are already included in the cost of the meals. Overall, I had a poor experience here and had terrible food. I do not recommend coming here.

Entry to this museum is included in the Schilthorn cable car ticket. The Schilthorn revolving…read morerestaurant was the first revolving restaurant in the world and they actually ran out of money and the film company that made On Her Majesty's Secret service helped finance the building so that it could be Blowfeld's evil base. There is interesting information on the film, the actors, actresses and the Olympic winning stuntmen that did the skiing. There is information on how the movie being shot here changed the area which was interesting. There were non-interactive and interactive exhibitions. The most fun being the helicopter simulator tour, the put yourself in the movie silly photos and the film your own bobsled he race - we did the fight scene and the film is very silly! I was dubious but it was good fun and useful to have something to do when waiting for the cloud to clear or for the coach load of tourists to move on

This was a nice experience for first time painting!…read more The instructor was clear in French and English, and participants were mixed language and men and women. There was a "club" feeling generated, and the presence of the restaurant right next door, from which we could get our 2 drinks (with coupons provided by Life of Art's Lisa) and take them to the studio made the atmosphere very convivial and gave a chance for participants to meet one another before the painting started. The painting I did wasn't the best but I was happy to give it a try and to see how others did too. Next time I hope to do better! I can recommend this experience to anyone who likes to find a new outlet for fun and some learning, and to meet some nice people.

Yelp Review 2026 #138:…read more This museum was Albert Einstein's actual apartment he shared with his wife Mileva and their son Hans for 2 years: 1903-1905. Einstein's two theories of relativity were in proposed in 1905 and published 1915 so, this apartment is where Einstein spent most of his days and nights thinking about and testing his theories. It's a small and modest 2nd floor apartment. On the third floor is more museum items like his books, papers, recognitions, and a space where you watch a video so you can learn about his personal life and his career. I thought I knew about his life by watching "Genius". I knew about Mileva being his wife. And there's Elsa who became his second wife - what I didn't know was the fact that they're first cousins! They started their relationship (outside of being cousins) in 1912 and got married in 1919. Another thing I learned about Einstein was about his citizenship. He was born in Germany but he renounced his German citizenship to avoid military service while he was studying in Switzerland. He then got his Swiss citizenship which he kept his whole life while acquiring temporary citizenship in Austria and Germany (again) but renouncing it (again) due to the Naz! regime. He got his dual citizenship (Swiss and US) when he moved to Princeton, New Jersey. There's a lot of information all around this museum. There's a family tree which I found interesting. So, if you know anyone claiming to be related to/ a descendant of Albert Einstein, it's traceable. We bought our tickets at the museum. We got there a few minutes after opening so, there wasn't a lot of people. A few minutes later, it started to get busy. There's a cafe attached to the museum. I didn't get to check it out.
