Switzerland, the heart of world Olympism
For over a century, Switzerland has held a unique place in the Olympic world. It is in Lausanne, on the shores of Lake Geneva, that the heart of world Olympism beats: the International Olympic Committee (IOC) established its headquarters there in 1915.
The Vaud capital is thus considered the Olympic capital, a symbol of neutrality, sporting tradition and modernity.
THE Olympic Museum Lausanne It is a true showcase of world sporting history. It displays the greatest achievements of the Games, iconic athletes' uniforms, torches from different editions, and interactive exhibits retracing more than a century of Olympism. This place perfectly illustrates the spirit of passion, respect, and excellence that drives the Games.
A nation loyal to the Olympic flame
Switzerland has participated in almost every edition of the Olympic Games, summer and winter, since the revival of the modern Games.
His record reflects the diversity and dynamism of his sport: medals in alpine skiing, curling, skating, but also in athletics, shooting or cycling.
Swiss athletes often embody precision, rigor and fair play — values dear to Olympism.
