Bernisches Historisches Museum - Einstein Museum

Switzerland has several museums around the country, but the Bernisches Historisches Museum - Einstein Museum is unique. After all, where else in the world can you find a museum dedicated to the guy who developed General Relativity and Special Relativity, as well as whose hair can be recognized from a mile away. And don't forget that Einstein invented special relativity while riding the tram to work in Bern.

The museum exhibits a diverse variety of materials dedicated to Einstein, his life, work, and brilliance. The museum houses around 550 genuine and replica artifacts, as well as 70 unique films and covers a variety of themes related to his work and life. Some of the most poignant exhibitions are those on the Holocaust and the dropping of the first atomic bomb on Hiroshima. Especially since Einstein was born in Germany and his work had a significant impact on the creation of the bomb.
