EXHIBITIONS

Permanent exhibition

Games of chance or mind games, games of skill or educational games plunge the visitor into an inexhaustible world of ideas and surprises.

Games with counters or with marbles, playing cards or bowling, dice games or lotteries – the museum presents the whole variety that prevails in the world of games.

Today’s games and games of yesteryear, games from here and elsewhere – visitors discover or rediscover well-known, unknown or forgotten games.

Handmade or craft games, unique or commercial objects – the permanent exhibition offers a sample of the museum’s rich collection.

Private collection – Bruno Gaeng’s passion for beautiful games

Prolongation until the 1st March 2020

In 2018, the passionate collector Bruno Gaeng from Montreux, donated 262 games of his collection to the museum. Over time, Bruno Gaeng was looking for beautiful objects and his collection has become a combination of aesthetics, nostalgia and diversity. In the large showcase of our gallery, an exhibition folder shows a large selection of this unusual collection and explains the special approach of Bruno Gaeng.
