The world knows Geneva as the Capital of Peace.

In this district where you'll find the major international organisations, history has been written and is best illustrated by the famous Red Cross and Red Crescent Museum!

The international district is living proof of the major role played by Geneva - home to more than 200 international organisations - on the world stage. You find these organisations on the right shore of the lake around the Place des Nations and the imposing European headquarters of the United Nations. The neighbouring park of La Perle du Lac is what the name says - a pearl on the glittering lake shore. Don’t miss a visit to the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Museum where the highly emotive and dramatic story of Geneva's humanitarian movement from 1863 to the present unfolds.
