Next to the ICRC headquarters, this museum tells 160 years of humanitarian action without preaching. Three chapters run from Henry Dunant founding the movement after the battle of Solferino to today's field missions; a famous wall of registers displays hundreds of thousands of First World War prisoner cards. Witness voices, archive film and interactive stations make it powerful — allow time to take it in.
