BOTTOMS UP - The History of Drinks and Drinking in Switzerland

Copyright: Graphische Sammlung Schweizerische Nationalbibliothek
5. December 2009 – 7. March 2010

What did wine taste like under the Ancien Régime?
When do the first mineral waters date back to?
Who benefited from phylloxera and the subsequent devastation of the vineyards?
Since when has milk been considered a typically Swiss product?
There are a host of questions which this exhibition attempts to answer by a captivating display of 150 works of art and everyday artefacts, some of which are quite unusual.
