The Tavel House is one of Geneva’s best-loved tourist attractions. A find old Geneva residence, it was destroyed by fire in 1334, but has since been restored by the city. The house contains artefacts of daily life in Geneva from the Middle Ages through the late 1800’s. The attic contains a real treasure which shouldn’t be missed, a scale model of pre-1850’s Geneva when the defensive walls still surrounded the city. Medieval graffiti in the basement of the house is a highlight for many visitors.
