Introducing Lausanne

This hilly city (loh-san), Switzerland's fifth largest (and third most visited after Geneva and Zürich), enjoys a blessed location. The medieval centre is dominated by one of the country's grandest Gothic cathedrals and, among the museums, the unusual l'Art Brut collection stands out. Sports fans will love the Musée Olympique. Throughout the year Lausanne's citizens are treated to a busy arts calendar.
