Why go

Original vehicles and interactive exhibits let you move between Swiss transport stories and wider themes of aviation and space travel. The range is the draw: you can compare rail and road machines with boats and aircraft in one place. The museum stands by Lake Lucerne, away from the densest old-town sights, so it merits a deliberate block of time.

What to look for

  • Original vehicles appear across road, rail, navigation and aviation displays.
  • The Aviation and Space Travel Hall includes historic aircraft and spacecraft material.
  • The museum’s lakeside setting offers a different side of Lucerne from the old town.

Useful to know

  • Set aside a substantial museum visit instead of treating it as a brief old-town detour.
  • Choose the transport galleries you most want to see before adding other attractions.
  • Check separate programmes if the Planetarium or Filmtheatre is part of your plan.
