Intro

The Swiss Customs Museum in Cantine di Gandria is located directly on Lake Lugano.

The Swiss Customs Museum in Cantine di Gandria is located on the shore of Lake Lugano, surrounded by lush vegetation. For a museum it is an exclusive place and the location is not without symbolic value: from the terrace there is a splendid view of the lake and Monte Brè, but the national border is not visible. Therefore, the way Swiss customs is presented inside the museum - in a building that once served as a border guard post - is even more surprising. Guests have the opportunity to see everything about the daily work of customs from the establishment of the federal state in 1848 to the present day: smuggling of goods, narcotics trafficking, economic crime, migration, control of precious metals, protection of species and cultural property.

The tasks of customs are numerous and varied. We hope that your visit to Cantine di Gandria at the Swiss-Italian border will be pleasant and interesting.

Getting there

Das Zollmuseum liegt am Südufer des Luganersees gegenüber von Gandria und dem Monte Brè. Es ist erreichbar mit Schiff ab Lugano oder Gandria bis zur Haltestelle «Museo Doganale» oder «Cantine di Gandria». Empfehlenswert ist auch der Olivenweg zu Fuss von Lugano nach Gandria und von dort per Schiff auf die andere Seeseite nach Cantine di Gandria. Der Uferweg von Caprino her ist nach starkem Regen nicht begehbar.
