Musée Sherlock Holmes

Musée Sherlock Holmes, Lucens

Created by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's son in 1965, the museum dedicated to the famous detective now occupies the "Red House", a rural building dating from 1824. In addition to books and objects relating to Sherlock Holmes, furniture, personal belongings and objects of the great British writer are also on display. Visitors can enter the living room of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson, which has been reconstructed according to the meticulous descriptions in the stories. Hundreds of authentic objects, sometimes strange and unusual, faithfully recreate the delightfully quaint atmosphere of the Victorian era. Original editions by A.C. Doyle; facsimiles of manuscripts.
