Zurich Museums

Zurich’s museum landscape spans from the Swiss National Museum’s historical archives to the Kunsthaus, Switzerland's largest art museum. Specialized collections include the FIFA World Football Museum, the Clock and Watch Museum Beyer, and the Rietberg Museum’s non-European art. Niche interests are represented by the Zurich Tram Museum, the Johann Jacobs coffee museum, and the Succulent Plant Collection, which houses over 6,000 specimens. Notable architectural sites include the Fraumünster’s Chagall windows and the Pavillon Le Corbusier.
