What is a museum?
The International Council of Museums (ICOM) defines a museum as a non-profit institution that is open to the public. It acquires, researches and preserves testimonies of people and their environment, makes them known and exhibits them.
What kind of museums are there in Switzerland?
More than 75 million exhibits are displayed in Switzerland's more than 1100 museums. One third of all Swiss museums are regional and local museums that provide information about the regions' past. Another third of the museums are shared between art museums, technical museums and history museums. The rest are natural science, archaeological and ethnographic museums as well as all other museums. These include unique museums such as the Frog Museum, the Music Box and Vending Machine Museum, and one or two Chocolate Museums.
