One of the most quirky attractions in all of Switzerland, the Fondation Claude Verdan in Lausanne is a museum dedicated entirely to the sense of touch and all that it means to us as a species. It’s located near the medical district of the city, and as such, you shouldn’t be surprised to see a lot of medical artefacts on display there, relating to the history of kinesiology and the science of touch.
It’s a must see type of attraction that you’ll be talking about for ages. The intricacies of human sense are explored in a way that is both scientifically sound, informative, and at the same time, very entertaining. The stated purpose of the museum is to open one’s eyes to the wonder in every small little thing; in this case, the human hand. In addition to all that they’ll learn about the sense of touch and how we use it to interact with the world, visitors will come away with a greater appreciation for the world around them in general.
