Exhibition about the history of swimming in Lake Geneva

This exhibition tells the rich and colorful story of swimming in Lake Geneva. We talk about architecture, water quality, fashion and hygiene ... We meet athletes, curists, tourists and washerwomen, but also Voltaire, Hergé, Courbet, Louis XVIII, and Brigitte Bardot ... We start in a big tour of the lake over the centuries, with stops in Vevey, Lausanne, Geneva, Montreux, not to mention Thonon and Evian ... les-Bains.
