International Museum of the Red Cross and Red Crescent Highlights: Must-See Features and Attractions
Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
Opened in 1988, the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Museum is located next to the International Committee of the Red Cross (IKRK), where you can learn about the history and present of the International Red Cross and Red Crescent through photos, videos and sculptures activities. In addition to the permanent exhibitions, the museum also hosts temporary thematic exhibitions. The International Red Cross was founded by Henri Dunant, who was born in Geneva. The flag of the International Red Cross is the exchange of the colors and background colors of the cross of the Swiss flag. However, because the red cross symbol is reminiscent of the Christian cross, it is not in the Islamic system. , it is regarded as a crescent-shaped mark, called the red crescent.

The museum covers many historical events of human all over the world, from generation to generation. Worth to visit!
日内瓦是一个很国际化的城市,众多的国际组织的总部都设在日内瓦,可能是由于瑞士的中立国地位所形成。若干的停火、停战谈判都首选在日内瓦举行,日内瓦似乎成了“和平”的代名词。 日内瓦的确让人感到平静温和,可能是由于是周六假日又是早晨行人游客不多。国际红十字组织总部建在高坡上从外观上看不出半丝奢华,但这里是全球救助和慈善活动的中心,无数因战乱和自然灾害形成的难民灾民受到了国际红十字组织的帮助。万国宫是日内瓦著名的建筑,是联合国驻欧洲办事处的总部,一片林立的万国旗代表了他的地位。万国宫对面的广场上有一著名的雕塑作品,一把高十多米的巨型木椅断了一条腿,靠三条腿立在广场中间,十分醒目,足以激发起人们的好奇心。它是1997年国际残联呼吁人们关注战争中地雷对平民造成的伤害而建立的纪念雕塑。作品让人们想到战争的危害和平的重要,制止战争珍惜和平应该成为人类的共同心声,这也许就是艺术的感染力。
他的旗子上的图案正好和瑞士国旗相反,因为他是由瑞士人创建的。星期一没开,不能进去参观,可惜了!只能在外面看看,拍照留念。
As part of the Geneva Passage, we visited the Red Cross Museum and were very impressed. The way the museum is built makes it easy for everyone to access it and provides interesting and comprehensive aspects of what the Red Cross has done and continues to do around the world. It is a very important organization.
There have been many years of introduction, pictures and objects about the Red Cross. Outside may be relatively ordinary, plain and unadorned, but inside is still worth seeing, rich content, detailed information (with Chinese explanation), good.
Beyond the entrance to the Palais des Nations, the museum is built on a hillside with a striking high profile, which is in sharp contrast to the excessive low profile of the Palais des Nations. Tickets are not suitable for Swiss tourist passes and need to be purchased separately.
