Today we are taking a virtual tour of the Swiss Shooting Museum (Schweizer Schützenmuseum Bern) in Bern, Switzerland. The museum has been in this building since just before World War Two, and focusses on the history of the Swiss competitive shooting culture and community. At the time of posting, the museum is closed for renovation, and will reopen in the fall of 2025 with an improved layout and better displays for the guns and other artifacts.
You can find their hours and other information on the web site, and keep up on the renovation process:
