About this audio guide

This guide to the MEG, the Musee d'ethnographie de Geneve, follows the choice architects made when they rebuilt the museum in twenty fourteen: to hide its collections underground rather than build upward. You will hear why, and how a natural feature just down the street shaped the way the museum thinks about keeping different things whole. Best heard from the garden courtyard outside the entrance, before heading down to the galleries.
