    Fantastic museum, packed with history of all types of watches
    This museum was fantastic and I am not particularly interested in watches. There are thousands of watches from various manufacturers in this museum, which illustrate how watches have developed over time, both functionally and aesthetically. There are also some examples of older watch making equipment and you can see someone restoring watches in a workshop. It's fascinating to understand how much politics and religion have impacted watch production over the years. We thought 2 hours here would be plenty but we felt rushed.

    History of watchmaking
    The four story museum gives you an idea and how the watch has evolved over time, from pocket watches to wristwatches. They also share the intricacies on how they manufacture their own time pieces and how this has evolved over time. If you are a watch enthusiast this is a must see.
