    ★★★★★a year ago

    This is a charming small museum with a unique nostalgic atmosphere. The exhibition contains items of great value from historical perspective. I really liked the stereoscopic pictures. One can immerse in the technologies of 3D perception of the past centuries. The cafeteria outside is also recommended to sit down for a drink.

    Lovely small museum dedicated to skiing and mountains around Switzerland! Some of the other reviews are quite critical, but I enjoyed the few exhibits there were and had a nice 30 minutes learning about skiing and looking at the displays. I would probably stop in again if I come back to Lucerne! Friendly staff and a very reasonable entry price.
