Top Things to do in Lausanne
Top 10 Shopping in Lausanne, Canton of Vaud
Lausanne was once an intellectual capital, attracting great thinkers such as Rousseau and Voltaire. Today it is a haven for those who love water skiing, swimming and sailing. The International Olympic Committee is even headquartered here. The town's history is evident, though, in its medieval cathedral, the museums of the Palais de Rumine, and Ouchy, the port where Lord Byron wrote "The Prisoner of Chillon" and the Treaty of Lausanne was ratified. For great views, hike up to the Signal de Sauvabelin.

The oldest family store in the city, founded in 1902 and remained unchanged until today. Specialized in various Swiss souvenirs, Swiss knives, cuckoo, bell, music box and various small souvenirs. Open every day in summer season.
Reviewed By 120giorgiom - Lausanne, Switzerland
We live close to Lausanne, so we know this store very well. We go there every time we look for a nice Swiss souvenir for our friends and visitors, and we have never been disappointed. The choice is excellent and the prices correct, with items for all budgets. Furthermore, the people running the store are extremely kind and always ready to help: they make the customers feel as part of the family. I particularly recommend the Bazar d'Ouchy for Swiss army knives (a very extensive selection) and for music boxes, starting from very inexpensive but with some high-level choices. I advise a visit whenever you are in Lausanne: with the metro, you can get there very easily, and Ouchy is also a very nice place to see.
