Travel Tips for Geneva
Histoire de Genève
by Sheila.
Genève, dont des traces archéologiques attestent le peuplement depuis 12'000 ans, a été une cité d'Empire au Moyen-Age, avant d'être englobée par les princes de Savoie, et de voir son destin basculer au XVIe siècle lors de la proclamation de la Réforme et la République. Calvin y construit alors la "Rome protestante".
Au XVIIIe siècle, la ville devient un centre bancaire, de l'horlogerie et des émaux, une capitale des sciences et de l'imprimerie. Voltaire et Rousseau contribuent à sa réputation.
En 1815, le canton adhère à la Suisse. La transformation néoclassique de la petite cité, qui au début du XIXe siècle ne compte que 25'000 habitants, va de pair avec la modernisation hôtelière.
Le Genevois Henry Dunant y crée en 1864 le Comité international de la Croix-Rouge.
La mission internationale de Genève s'affirme après la Première Guerre mondiale, lorsqu'elle devient le siège de la Société des Nations, devancière de l'ONU et de bien d'autres institutions internationales.

Microcosm (CERN)
The central section of the UA1 experiment on display at the Microcosm museum
Microcosm is a museum of particle physics located at CERN in the Canton of Geneva, Switzerland, near the town of Meyrin. It is a very comprehensive museum, covering a broad range of particle physics topics, as well as the entire history of CERN. Exhibits include:
• Explanations of the purpose of CERN and particle physics research in general
• A mock-up, hands-on version of Rutherford's gold foil experiment
• A real-time cosmic ray detector
• A mock-up of the Large Hadron Collider tunnel
• Models and explanations of current and future CERN experiments
• Equipment from old experiments, including a large part of the UA1 detector, which ran at the Super Proton Synchrotron at CERN from 1981 to 1984, and helped discover the W and Z bosons.
The Cathedral of St Peter
by eranda
The Cathedral of St Peter not only controls Geneva’s present day skyline from an imposing hilltop position, but has also played a vital fraction in local narration. Almost continually seeing the clone spires of the fine place of adoration whilst in the neighborhood and knowing its past importance made going there a much higher priority for me than visiting the better recognized traveler magnetisms such as the blossom clock.
Although imposing from below, my first feedback to seeing the huge arrangement at closer range was admittedly that of slight dissatisfaction. It is outwardly a rather untidy combination of architectural styles that is without delay clear thanks to the neo-classical frontage, which does not fit in with the attractive nearby medieval plaza.

2. Library and museum
This university campus was built between 1868 and 1871 in an attractive park near the opera house.
The university library contains a Rousseau Museum with manuscripts, books and musical compositions by Jean-Jacques Rousseau, but this museum was unfortunately closed for renovation when I was there.
