The Ethnological Museum of the University of Zurich is an ethnological science museum and the third oldest ethnological museum in Switzerland.

Not far from the main train station and Paradeplatz, in the old Botanical Garden, lie hidden treasures of a kind that one would hardly expect in these surroundings: self-testimonies of foreign peoples, objectified in their objects. In changing exhibitions and diverse events, the Ethnological Museum of the University of Zurich brings this world of non-European cultures closer to the public with charged objects and rare documents. A visit to the Ethnological Museum is a leap out of familiar surroundings.
