Top 5 attractions in Neuchâtel
- Laténium, park and museum of archaeology
From the Ice Age to the medieval times, the museum takes the visitor 50,000 years back in time. Thousands of finds are on exhibit, such as those from the prehistoric lakeshore villages and the world-famous weapons of the Celtic civilization. It is set in an archaeological park on the shores of Lake Neuchâtel. www.latenium.ch
- Panoramic funicular railway La Coudre – Chaumont
Just 5 minutes from the town center, the funicular railway La Coudre – Chaumont takes you to an original ride up to an altitude of 1,000 m in less than 10 minutes. The panoramic tower located at the arrival offers a stunning view of the Three Lakes and the Alps. www.neuchateltourisme.ch/chaumont
- Guided visits “Neuchâtel à la Belle Epoque”
Discover the treasures of the old town of Neuchâtel, either with a guide or by yourself (individual visit available from spring 2017). You will enjoy ten new experiences in relation with Belle Epoque : What you they eat at that time? How would they dress? What would they play at? Far more than a traditional city tour, this new visit brings an interactive touch while staying educational. www.neuchateltourisme.ch/belle-epoque
- Cruises on the Three-Lakes
One of the best ways to discover the beautiful Three-Lake region. Aboard one of the nine boats of the navigation company, you will enjoy a gorgeous landscape between Neuchâtel and Morat, for example. www.navig.ch
- Art and History Museum and Jaquet-Droz Automatons
Presentation of three incredible androids dating the 18th century and real ancestors to the modern computers. www.mahn.ch
