The historical museum of Lucerne calls itself depot, and that's what it looks like: a storage house packed full of historic artefacts from tiny needles to huge pieces of sculpture, packed on shelves, in drawers, in glass cabinets. But there is help! Every object has a bar code which you can scan with the hand-held scanner you get. It then tells you about the object on the display, in English or German. But much better than that is the children's quiz - lots of kids love following the story the quiz tells, running up and down the four floors looking for the objects the scanner points them to. They can choose from several different themes, and there is even a prize!
