City of Geneva horology and enamel museum

Built in the first half of the 19th century in the Palladian style, Villa Bryn Bella in leafy Malagnou park has, since 1972, housed the collections of the City of Geneva horology and enamel museum.

The Museum is currently closed to the public. It will reopen in 2009 with fully redesigned and expanded exhibition space. Visitors will discover, or rediscover, in a completely new setting, the museum's important collections. They retrace the history and professions of Geneva's Fabrique (horology, enamelwork, jewellery) together with developments in the watchmaking industry in Switzerland and worldwide. Objects spanning the 16th to 21st centuries - watches and clocks, sundials and sandglasses, jewellery and miniatures, snuffboxes and objets de vertu, watchmaking and enamelling tools, watch dials and other documents - will be presented in original stagings.

Meanwhile, the Museum pursues its multiple activities and areas of specialisation through its participation in various events, in particular at the Geneva museum of art and history.
