Great Museum for the Olympics - We have seen a few sports museums around the world but this one is easily one of the best. It has a nice open floor plan and extensive exhibits without being too overwhelming or cluttered. We appreciated how they presented some of the most important events and people for Olympic history, the inclusion of videos and the memorabilia from all eras of modern Olympic History.
The museum has an accessible design with a long sloping ramp in the centre that allows access to all floors. They have a restaurant and a cafe in the building but my favourite feature was the gift shop that seemed to sell literally everything from all Olympics. They had mascots, posters and all sorts of collectibles that would be enough for any fan.
The cost to enter is 20 CHF and it is easy to spend 2-3 hours here depending on the interest level. They have lockers that give back the coin deposit once you return the key. We found street parking out front to be reasonable and had many stops prior to this on a busy day as we completed a road trip around Switzerland. Outside there is a sculpture park and we enjoyed a nice sunset over the water before driving to Geneva.

Great museum! - Really nice collection of items from the Olympic Games. Starts with a rendering of the Ancient games in Greece. Explains how the modern games were conceptualized and supported. Great display of uniforms and equipment used in the games from about 1940 to today. There was an Opening Ceremony film that compiled so many ceremonies over the past 40 years. Really liked the personal stories of hundreds of Olympians available to read in the interactive displays complete with videos and personal stories. Can be covered in an hour. Grounds are beautiful, right along Lake Geneva. Highly recommend if you’re in Lausanne!

A must-do activity! - The Olympic Museum in Lausanne is excellent—well-curated, interactive, and full of fascinating artifacts. The exhibits are engaging without being overwhelming, and the views over Lac Léman are a bonus. A must-see in the city. ★★★★★

A must for any Olympics enthusiast - Loved it!! Very interactive and a great experience for everyone. I was surprised there was so little focus on the Paralympics though, I understand space is limited but would have been good to see a feature on them, maybe cut down on the gaming side of things and give a room solely to the Paralympics.

Nice history-view of the Olympic Games - A nice experience to see the collection and the history of the Olympic Games. Expected something more, but it was a nice/fun experience due the rain.
