Intro

The Forum Schweizer Geschichte Schwyz is one of the most important cultural-historical museums in the Alpine region; it is a modern history museum and a cultural-historical experience and meeting place at the same time.

  •

The Forum of Swiss History Schwyz is the seat of the Swiss National Museum in Central Switzerland.

The permanent exhibition "Emergence of Switzerland. On the road from the 12th to the 14th century" shows the conditions under which the old Swiss Confederation was formed in the Middle Ages. The story of the origins of Switzerland is designed as an adventure trail that appeals emotionally to children and adults. An unusual spatial arrangement over three floors makes a visit to the museum an experience.

The regularly changing exhibitions in the basement are of great importance for the region and Central Switzerland. The temporary exhibitions take up current themes and present them in a contemporary way. A cafeteria and an attractive museum store round off the offer for visitors.
