Lausanne, city of art and culture
|
|
Lausanne, dominated by the Old Town, bearing witness to its rich medieval past with its Gothic Cathedral and historic homes, has its opera, its theatres, its corps de ballet, its musical ensembles, its film library, its 19 museums and its Summer festivals - a really exceptional European city of art and culture!

Few towns of 250'000 inhabitants (Greater Lausanne) can boast as many cultural facilities and events as Lausanne. Its artistic and cultural life is comparable to that of European and American cities with a population of several million. Yes, the people of Lausanne are spoiled for choice... and so are their guests!
