Swiss Guard Museum

Museum in the Naters fortress explaining the Swiss Guard's Rome-bound tradition.

The Swiss Guard Museum sits in the old Naters fortification across the Rhone from Brig station. It is an unusual little museum, tracing the Valais and Swiss story behind the guards best known for their Vatican uniforms.

It is worth adding if you are curious about Swiss military history or want a stop that is not another church, castle, or mountain viewpoint.
