For me, the most beautiful view of Lausanne in springtime is from the Musée de l’Élysée’s park. With its alley bordered with cherry blossoms and its benches, it’s the perfect place for a lunch break with a view over Lake Geneva.
The Museum of Contemporary Design and Applied Arts and Photo Elysée are two museums housed in a single building, and I must say that its architecture, with its refined lines, is truly magnificent. I love going there to discover the current exhibitions and have a coffee at Café Lumen, located at the mudac. And do you know what? Even in winter, if the sun is shining, I won’t hesitate to go out on the enclosed outdoors terrace. It’s fab to be able to get warm while enjoying the view.
A museum dedicated to photography that organises major international exhibitions all year round. Since 2022, Photo Elysée shares with the mudac a cubic concrete building – an admirable architectural work from all points of view. The space housing Photo Elysée is completely modular to create new experiences for each exhibition. Don’t forget to explore Plateforme 10 – the arts district – and take the time to visit the other two museums (MCBA/mudac).
