Take a look behind the scenes at the Collection Centre in Affoltern and join us on an exclusive tour of the Swiss National Museum’s diverse press photo archive.
The collection is made up of the two press photo archives of the agencies ‘Presse Diffusion Lausanne’ (1937-1973) and ‘Actualités Suisses Lausanne’ (1954-2000). The latter was considered the most important press photo agency in French-speaking Switzerland until its closure. The holdings of the two agencies comprise around six million images (negatives, prints, slides). The wide range of topics covered includes federal politics, sport and French-speaking Switzerland.
Registration required by 9 September. The tour is organised for groups of 5 or more participants.
Meeting point: Foyer of the Collection Centre in Affoltern
