This place is a must visit when in Lausanne. Believe me it is fun at any age, educational and inspiring. The Museum offers 3,000m2 of exhibition space and unique immersive experience - for instance, can you compete with the speed of Usain Bolt on 100m? What I love about this place is that there is always some additional temporary exhibitions that are free of charge - now it is "Free to run" dedicated to the history of Marathon running. The visit continues throughout the park territory around the museum and if you come here in March you can be lucky to see the most beautiful Cherry trees alley in Lausanne in full pink blossom. After a visit I advise you to have a coffee or lunch at Tom Café on the last floor - it has a jaw dropping view on the Olympic Park and lake.
Who is Tom? The answer to this frequently asked question can be found in the basement of this café in Ouchy.: the Olympic Museum. It’s only natural that Lausanne’s most visited cultural place has lent its name to its restaurant. Guests appreciate its bright dining room decorated with design and sports elements but also its unique terrace on the shores of Lake Geneva.
The restaurant’s dish of the day with a green salad is good value for money: approx. CHF 20. Also highly popular is its weekend brunch. The selection of gluten-free dishes will appeal to guests with food allergies or intolerances. Don't forget to make a reservation by e-mail or by phone.
